Upbeat tone at latest Eden community conversation but new Labour government is pushing for 'realism'
The Eden Project in Morecambe is supported by the new Labour government and significant site investigation work is expected later this year, an update meeting has heard.
Traffic, park-and-ride arrangements and Morecambe railway station's capacity are also being looked at. "There has been some big change with the general election and a new government. Our early indication from the new Labour government is that it is committed to this, as with the previous government. The hub is a system used by local councils and the construction industry to publicise building and civil engineering opportunities.Barry Wright, an audience member said: "It's going to be an exciting project for locals. But the Eden site is tight. I wonder if part of the old Frontierland area could be used for construction vehicles and machinery? Like a mini contractors' city?"
