East Devon District Council has reacted with dismay to news that government agency Homes England has changed how it is assessing the council's £10 million bid for the Axminster relief road.
The council bid for a non-repayable grant in 2017. This bid was accepted in February 2018, to be used to help fund the delivery of the crucial new relief road and associated homes, employment land and community facilities.
