The ‘new’ Combined Authority Mayor for Cambridgeshire & Peterborough will be
Dr. Nik Johnson.
Some have asked me whether this will make any difference to the Kings Dyke Bridge project.
It is my underdstanding that the funds that the previous Mayor allocated are ‘ring fenced’ and can not be rescinded.
However should the scheme run over budget (there are no indications of this at present) – then it would be between Cambs CC/Mayor and the contractors.
For anything else which has not been already agreed upon and monies allocated, then all other ‘Wish Lists’ will have to be put to Mr Johnson and his team when they are up and running.
I have had up until now, no contact with Mr Johnson.
