"Isn't this level enough already?"


It does have the look of a trailer for a low-budget private eye drama. Failed politicians set out to hunt down hackers who can actually retrieve WhatsApp messages.
Poor man's Reservoir Dogs...

£20m now secured from government for Stafford Station Gateway project

The £20m is part of the Levelling Up Funding and has been granted by Central Government for Staffordshire County Council & Stafford Borough Council to use for this project.

The proposals include a new hotel, up to 900 new homes, commercial space, leisure facilities and a multi-storey car park with 350 spaces. This project is on the brownfield land around the Stafford railway station.

The plans will create 7 new neighbourhoods – Station West, The Hollies, Lakeside, Castle Engine Works, Marling Terrace, Wicketgate & Doxey Road.

The plan is that in 2040 the Stafford Station Gateway will be a thriving, vibrant new community where people want to live, work and visit, sustainably connected to Stafford Railway Station

Ahh yes WicketGate..

I remember the controversy when Iron Bottom took a back hanger from the hotel wardrobe

The scandal!

Hovver jets have been left off this ‘ artists ‘ impression for safety reasons

( 900 homes would actually cost £200 million )

Wonderful, just like the rest of Stafford then !
Seriously though, where will the Royal Mail Delivery Office be moving to ?

They are hoping that they will relocate. If not, the plan has flexibility to allow them to remain

The 124 page document on the SBC website says the Royal Mail Delivery Office is staying, unless I misunderstood it.

Asbestos in a car park. :?:

Thanks. I doubt of they'd find a suitable site anywhere near the town centre.
And no connection to the railway.

🤔 so little new; reiterating information already released and advertised in media! E.g. Plans for a hotel on the rugby pitch! At least college extension Iis looking clos to being finishin & of course the houses were finshed on the 2nd & 3rd pitches have been occupied for a couple of years. I'm being impatient!

🤔 What's happening with the old M&S, old Market, old Co Op, the whole North End of Town? ....... 🤔

.... STAFFORD RANGERS? 😭

Thanks.
The illustration shows the original listed building, built between the wars for customs clearance of overseas parcels I believe, still in place and pedestrians wandering around it but all the other now essential buildings gone.
