Consultation opens on proposals for new 300-home development in Wendover
A consultation period has opened in connection with plans to construct a new 300-home neighbourhood in Aylesbury Vale.
Hawridge Land has revealed plans to construct a 300 dwelling development on land south of Halton Lane in Wendover.
Currently, the developer is proposing to sell half of the properties at the Government’s ‘affordable’ rate. As part of the scheme the Buckinghamshire-based housing company is proposing to create new walking and cycling paths, plus a mobility hub and other amenities.
Hawridge Land says that existing trees and hedgerows will be retained where possible. It plans to create a landscape buffer to protect the surrounding area and says enhanced landscaping will be delivered throughout.
According to the company’s data the project would represent a biodiversity net gain of at least 10%.
Des Wicks, managing director at Hawridge Land, said: "We are delighted to share our emerging vision for Wendover Springs, which represents a unique opportunity to deliver desperately needed market and affordable homes in a highly sustainable location, alongside a range of community benefits.
“We are keen to ensure the proposals come forward in a way which best reflects local feedback and priorities. With that in mind, we are running an extended consultation period across the summer to ensure everyone has an opportunity to have their say.”
Hawridge Land has created a website for the project which can be accessed here. Hawridge Land’s consultation will remain open until August 28.
The business revealed that it is looking to submit an outline planning application to Bucks Council this autumn.
