The plans all indicate a station at Wixams. This does not exist. It should have been built more than a decade ago and there is no guarantee current planning will be complete in time to use set aside developer money before their revised deadline. Its completion is therefore in doubt.
This issue highlights the difficulty of enforcing planning aspirations. Any plan must be based on actual or realistic infrastructure considerations.
