Respondent: Bellway Homes Limited (Hyde Lane site)

Agent: Turley

We have no in principle objection to the proposed allocation at Cross Green (draft policy SA2), although there remain a number of concerns regarding timescales for its delivery. In summary:
There is currently no evidence available as to how the access road will be funded, which is estimated to cost just £20m.
There is no evidence regarding the delivery trajectory for Cross Green. In order to de-risk the plan, there is merit in considering either increasing the quantum of development identified on existing allocations where there is additional capacity. there is the potential to safeguard additional land to the north of land west of Hyde Lane for circa 65 homes.
