Marshgate Drive....

Behind the sea cadet hut, lots of trees have been cut back by the old bus depot. Anybody know whats going on and why? My guess is housing.

What a good idea. [?] We need a bit more traffic to fill up Mead Lane. I can't believe that the council allows permission for this when there is only one exit & entrance to the roads on the estate. What with the new Rivere flats, Industrial units being built further down Mead Lane and now this, its (going to be) virtually impossible to drive down that road!!!!

Soemeone needs to dig deeper. Somewhere there must be a strategic document document driving these sort of decisions.

And then of course there's the planning application for [url="http://e-services.eastherts.gov.uk/swiftlg/apas/run/WPHAPPDETAIL.DisplayUrl?theApnID=3/07/0935/FP&backURL=%3Ca%20href=wphappcriteria.display?paSearchKey=47657%3ESearch%20Criteria%3C/a%3E%20%3E%20%3Ca%20href='wphappsearchres.displayResultsURL?ResultID=95130%26StartIndex=1%26SortOrder=APNID:asc%26DispResultsAs=WPHAPPSEARCHRES%26BackURL=%3Ca%20href=wphappcriteria.display?paSearchKey=47657%3ESearch%20Criteria%3C/a%3E'%3ESearch%20Results%3C/a%3E"]182 homes off Marshgate drive[/url] as well. And I wonder what's planned for the old gasworks? You could fit in another 200 there as well once it's been declared safe. As far as I'm aware there is no strategy with regard to land off Mead Lane. There was an attempt by a developer to force a review 3 years ago but it came to nothing. http://e-services.eastherts.gov.uk/swiftlg/apas/run/WPHAPPDETAIL.DisplayUrl?theApnID=3/07/0935/FP&backURL=%3Ca%20href=wphappcriteria.display?paSearchKey=47657%3ESearch%20Criteria%3C/a%3E%20%3E%20%3Ca%20href='wphappsearchres.displayResultsURL?ResultID=95130%26StartIndex=1%26SortOrder=APNID:asc%26DispResultsAs=WPHAPPSEARCHRES%26BackURL=%3Ca%20href=wphappcriteria.display?paSearchKey=47657%3ESearch%20Criteria%3C/a%3E'%3ESearch%20Results%3C/a%3E"]182 All of this was predicted on this website back in 2003... http://e-services.eastherts.gov.uk/swiftlg/apas/run/WPHAPPDETAIL.DisplayUrl?theApnID=3/07/0935/FP&backURL=%3Ca%20href=wphappcriteria.display?paSearchKey=47657%3ESearch%20Criteria%3C/a%3E%20%3E%20%3Ca%20href='wphappsearchres.displayResultsURL?ResultID=95130%26StartIndex=1%26SortOrder=APNID:asc%26DispResultsAs=WPHAPPSEARCHRES%26BackURL=%3Ca%20href=wphappcriteria.display?paSearchKey=47657%3ESearch%20Criteria%3C/a%3E'%3ESearch%20Results%3C/a%3E"]182
