Dear Cheshire East Council,

In January 2024, Seddon Construction applied to Cheshire East Council to vary the condition attached to their Manchester Road, Congleton development requiring a Toucan crossing. The variation of condition application ref: 24/0147C was decided within 2 weeks without consultation. As a result, the crossing, if built, will now be downgraded to a puffin crossing.

We request access to emails, telephone memos, reports, meeting notes and any other decision making records that went on internally and between Seddon/Laurus and the Cheshire East Council members / officers (particularly those in the Highways department and the Planning Department) on this matter before and after the application to downgrade the Toucan crossing was made.

Yours faithfully,

Paul Emms
