Cities & Growth Minister Greg Clark MP joined local MP for Warrington David Mowat and dignitaries from across Cheshire to sign a local growth deal worth £158million for the region last week.
The Cheshire and Warrington Local Growth Deal will see significant Government investment in transport infrastructure and cutting-edge science research. The deal includes funding for both a Mersey crossing between Chester Road and Slutchers Lane and a new high-level crossing over the Manchester Ship Canal linking the A56 and A57.
