FLOOD OF OBJECTIONS OVER 200-HOME DEVELOPMENT BID

Fears homes will make 'Plympton pong' even worse

THERE has been a flood of objections to plans to build 200 homes on the edge of Plymouth. People are concerned the proposal for land at Boringdon Park, near Plympton, will put huge strain on traffic, sewage and other services in the area – especially as plans have already been approved to build 550 homes at neighbouring Coypool.

In July this year, South West Strategic Developments (SWSD) submitted a hybrid planning application to create a sports hub, with 14 pitches, next to 200 dwellings on 30 hectares of farm land. Access to the housing, and on to the sports pitches, would be via one road through the yet-to-be-built Coypool Park development. There would be an emergency exit onto Plymbridge Road.

But already the proposed scheme has received 41 objections from members of the public. There have been none in favour and only one is marked “neutral”.
