Where should be developed in the next 20 years?
« on: July 26, 2007, 07:35:46 PM »
The Regional Spatial Strategy calls for 5000 new homes in Trowbridge and 5000 elsewhere in West Wiltshire.

At the West Wilts Show today, I stopped by a stand run by the District Council that was beginning to take views from people as to where they felt the houses should go - put your magnets on a diagram, and they took a picture.   Well - I took a picture too and (with their approval) reproduce it here



The show is open tomorrow (Friday) and Saturday, and entrance is Free.   Do come along and see me with my "Save the Train" hat on, in hall B.  Also see Peter and Sion ... and play the game.

Call me a cynic (some do , strangely) but I dont think they will stop at the numbers quoted above. See link below.

There is a similar exercise being carried out in North Wilts too:
