That's not a firm reply, Scribs.
ReplyDeleteThe operative word is 'progresses', a snail progresses, but a cheetah progresses even faster.
Brigg TC needs to clarify the 'progresses' bit...it's all relative.
We are not privy to the actual question posed to Tesco.
ReplyDeleteBut does the response actually relate to the rumour that the new-build has been deferred for 18 months/3 years?
Since Tesco is a commercial property, planning permission does not expire until November, 2016 - potentially 5 years of 'progressing its intention'.
The reply to me sounds like Tesco-speak - it doesn't actually indicate anything definite.
