Funding which had been set aside for the A43 project has been moved to pay for a road in Nottinghamshire and no date has been set for the Corby scheme to go ahead.

The decision was taken after the cost of the A43 scheme rocketed to £36,9m and the A509 Isham bypass doubled in price to £29.7m.
The Corby Link Road plans are for a dual carriageway starting from the A6003 at Barford Bridge to the A43 near Corby.

It aims to improve transport links from the town to the A14 while relieving nearby villages of through traffic, particularly lorries.
An inquiry into the scheme was held recently and a report has now gone to the Secretary of State.

It heard that 22,000 vehicles travel through Geddington every week.
Northamptonshire County Council leader Jim Harker said: "Any delay is a risk to both projects.

"But I'd rather be optimistic and say we're carrying on in getting ready as much as we can for the February budget round."

The East Midlands Regional Assembly, which took the decision to re-allocate the money, will not consider the plans until February.
A quarter of the plan is funded by the county council, while the Government would fund the rest.

Cllr Harker is also chairman of the East Midlands regional planning committee, which decides which road schemes will be allocated money.

At a recent meeting, committee members decided to prioritise an A453 improvement plan in Nottinghamshire that has shot up by £78m, leaving nothing for both Northamptonshire schemes.

Chairman of Geddington Parish Council Val Bellamy said: "I live next to the A43 and have been here for 40 years. The house shakes when heavy good vehicles go past.

"I thought the funding had already been sourced for this."
County councillor for Corby Rural, Stan Heggs, said: "This would have a serious impact on Corby. One of the conditions approving a planning application for a Pro-Logis site was this link road going in.
"We can't continue building warehouses if we haven't got the infrastructure."
