David Wilson Homes development at Johnston Pipes, Doseley

This scheme for 460 homes is now at the final planning application stage (reserved matters).

Despite the fact there is only one access/egress onto the wholly inadequate St. Luke's Road junction, the outline planning granted by #Telford #Labour administration allows the developer to build and sell 345 new homes without any provision for a second access/egress point.

Without modification this development is going to bring chaos and misery to existing and new residents alike. The length of St. Luke's Road, Frame Lane and Woodhouse Lane is already a traffic nightmare and it's set to get a whole lot worse.

My understanding is that there have so far been been no substantive discussions between the parties to open up a route onto Lightmoor Way.

This scheme will also wipe out forty-three direct jobs and countless more indirectly employed. A good days work for this "co-operative", "business-winning" #Labour council.
