Moving the MoD Oil Pipeline to build the bypass

Bypass Posted on Sat, September 19, 2015 07:59

The LibDem/Tory Coalition Government sold off the Ministry of Defence oil pipelines, which supply fuel to our Airforce and airports, to the Spanish. In order to build the A6 MARR they will have to divert the oil pipeline which supplies aviation fuel to Manchester Airport.

They seem a bit slow in starting this.

Dear
Ms Oliver,

The
team working on behalf of the Bramhall Oil Terminal with respect to the
diversion of the former MOD pipeline are in regular liaison with the A6 to
Manchester Airport Relief project team and continue to work with them on
matters relevant to the diversion of the pipeline, required to accommodate the
new road scheme.

Thank
you for your interest and the information provided.

With
kind regards
