Bedenken, die über neue ‚kolossale‘ 6.000-Home-Entwicklung in Hampshire geäußert wurden

At least they are finally building stuff north of the M27.

For context, Fareham Borough Council began to promote the idea of a new community North of Fareham two decades ago to meet the increasing demand for essential housing and employment growth. As a result, a Strategic Development Area for a major mixed-use development scheme of 10,000 homes was included in the South East Plan in May 2009.

The allocation of land for this new community finally came together in Part 3 of the adopted Local Plan, the Welborne Plan PDF (15 MB), in 2015. The Council’s vision was for a new community set apart from, but connected to Fareham, with up to 6000 dwellings, rather than the 10,000 originally proposed, supported by a district centre and village centre, retail and community facilities, a public house, a hotel, over 100,000m2 of employment space, health and veterinary facilities, pre-schools, a secondary school, three primary schools, formal and informal open and amenity spaces, woodland areas, allotments, wildlife corridors; a household waste recycling centre; a remodelled M27 J10, works to the A32, cycleways and pedestrian networks and all supporting infrastructure, to be developed over a period of 20 years.

And local people have only discovered this now?

Well, _my_ main concern is that it’s taken around ten years (sixteen years from when the first plans for the site were made) to reach the point where they’re starting construction.

Ridiculous, no wonder we have a housing crisis when these developments take so long to get through local councils. And this is just the first phase of development, subsequent phases will need more approval from the council.

Developments like these should receive approval in a matter of months, not years. There’s far too much bureaucracy and inefficiency involved.

Haven’t read it but they complain about infrastructure right?

I’m local to this development (can see it from the end of my road) and aside from environmental issues many people’s concerns are that this development isn’t providing the types of properties that Fareham needs. We need affordable houses for first time buyers and houses for older generations to downsize to. Yes, the development does include a small number of these but nowhere near enough as the developer did a deal whereby they agreed to pay for more of the sounding infrastructure and in return they could reduce the number of affordable homes.

Near me we had an NHS unit demolished and it took them 15 years to get round to building 30 houses on it. It was a pile of rubble for ten of them.

OK that’s cool, but when you have a road that runs east to west, and you build on one side of it, it’s either north or south of that line.

Wellbourne is exactly what developments in modern Britain should look like. It has infrastructure, shops, is walkable, and is beautiful.

The people voicing these concerns, how good istheir understanding of causality? Do they understand that what they are doing is the cause of housing unaffordability, that housing unaffordability is the effect of their whinging, and people paying exorbitant bills for far worse than what a far lesser amount would buy them elsewhere?

Whenever this sort of issue/subject gets brought up, the ‘greenfield’ lot arrive (comment-wise) in their droves plus the WFM people that have zero need (apparently) to be on-site to effectively do their jobs.

It’s like nobody else is out there just attempting to pay for rent and food plus work in the ‘muck’.
