The Council has submitted a bid to the Government for support in delivering a new garden village development on land to the east of Cullompton.

Garden Village status will assist in the delivery of the town centre relief road and J28 improvements badly needed in the Cullompton area.

The bid seeks a package of financial assistance, opening up the potential to deliver these highway improvements earlier.  It also seeks additional support for funding a feasibility study into a new railway station for Cullompton.

If successful, the Government indicates that access could be granted to wider road and rail capital funding programmes.
