Sue Robb of 4Children talks to Julie Laughton and Alison Britton from the Department for Education about the role of childminders in delivering the 30 hours free entitlement.
A £9 million boost by the Department for Transport (DfT) will help fund £15 million of improvements in the key development sites, Sherford and east of Exeter.
In Sherford, the £5 million fund plus £3 million developer contributions will deliver a proposed new link road, bus route and segregated walking and cycling route for the new community.
The route will provide the main access to the community from the A38, unlocking up to 4,200 new homes and 83,000 square metres of employment space.
East of Exeter, the growth and development will receive a £4 million boost, which with £3 million developer contributions will deliver improvements to Moor Lane junction to provide more capacity for traffic using the A30 and from Sowton Industrial estates extension of the higher quality cycle routes into the city; an additional multi-use car park at the Science Park; plus extension of the electric bike scheme.
Andrea Davis, Devon County Council cabinet member for infrastructure, development and waste, said: “This is great news for Devon. Great for Devon residents, and great for Devon businesses. The £9 million will bring with it improvements in Exeter, and much needed access, and High Street, to the new town of Sherford. Both schemes will be a boost for new housing, jobs and connectivity in Devon.”
