John Leech MP Ensures Extra Consultation in his Constituency on Proposed Congestion Charge
Local Liberal Democrat MP John Leech has welcomed the news that transport bosses have agreed his request to hold a roadshow in Chorlton to answer questions about the proposed Greater Manchester congestion charge.
Designed as a way for the public to express their opinions on the matter, plans for the event come after a direct request by John Leech. Concerned that people had no platform to have their say on the issue, he is delighted that his constituents will now have such an opportunity.John, a Transport Spokesperson for the Liberal Democrats, has called for a referendum on the congestion charge ever since the proposals were announced.
John Leech MP said:
"This will be an excellent way to determine public opinion and for Greater Manchester Passenger Transport Executive (GMPTE) to answer questions from residents of Chorlton."
Held on Friday 29th August at Chorlton Park Infant School, it will take place all day from 11am until 7pm. With everybody invited to attend, it is a great way for your views to be heard by the GMPTE representatives.
