The A1017 will come to a halt twice a day

The road’s too small for too many more people (and don’t start on the water supply,sewage system etc


  • Main road does not support present levels of traffic
  • Develop site within envelop for houses and small businesses and see if successful
  • Improve services before building more houses - drainage/flooding
  • Primary school situation deal but needs better access road
  • Look to change village envelope to include places outside where housing had existed before in the past.
