You lost me. You think getting a nuclear power station built is more straightforward than some housing estate?(!)

"Thank you for your email and taking the time to make contact regarding our project in Talbot Green. You might have seen the works on site have recommenced in preparing the site for construction and the construction of a new access road. These works are due to be completed in October 2016.
I have received some other enquires asking about Sainsbury's and if they have withdrawn from the project. Sainsbury's have not pulled out of the project and are still very much committed to building a new store when the site preparation works are complete. We are having regular dialogue and meetings with Sainsbury's regarding their requirements now the infrastructure works are well underway. We are also having a regular dialogue with Leekes regarding their requirements for a new store.
We intend to commence the construction of the new town centre which includes a new cinema once the infrastructure works are complete however there is a lot of work to complete before construction can commence. Once work has started it will take approximately two years to complete.
We are in the process of finalising the detail of the new town centre project and arranging for a new information press release to be issued. The project will have a new website which will inform the local Community on progress and who the new retailers and leisure occupiers are.
Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any queries in the future."

Traffic leaving the M4 east bound should have been ramped over to join the A4232.
This would have negated the need for traffic lights full stop.
The money spent improving the junction has been a complete waste, the traffic delays in the morning are worse than before the work was started. I do hope that the eastern bay link wont also turn into traffic bedlam.
