Lovewadebridge steps up out-of-town supermarket fight
June 1, 2010
The campaign group lovewadebridge.com is holding another public meeting this Thursday 3 June at 6pm in Wadebridge Town Hall.
Its 500+ members, representing local households and businesses, are opposing three out-of-town supermarket developments.
Both Morrison’s and Sainsbury’s now want to build brand new superstores on the east side of Wadebridge. Tesco has applied to expand its existing store at the top of West Hill.
Lovewadebridge.com was set up by local residents concerned that these out-of-town developments would damage the heart of Wadebridge – its character, economy and quality of life.
It’s proposing alternative ideas to maintain the health and well-being of this historic market town.
