Decision day looms for huge 1,500-home plan near Bridgnorth as developers eye up sites across county
Decision day looms this week for a huge 1,500-home development planned for the outskirts of a Shropshire town.
Shropshire Council's southern planning committee will tomorrow (February 24) make a decision on proposals for a new garden village at Tasley, on the outskirts of Bridgnorth.
The proposal is being put forward by Bloor Homes and Taylor Wimpey, for a 112-hectare site to the west of the town.
The plans include 1,500 new houses, a primary school, 14.6 hectares of employment land, a 'local centre', sports pitches including a 3G pitch, and a 'country park'.
A report prepared for the committee recommends the plan is approved, citing the council's ongoing difficulties in demonstrating a five-year land supply as a significant factor.
