New estate of 500 homes went up near us last year. Lovely houses. Absolutely no infrastructure.
No GP surgery. No school places. No bus route. No pharmacy. No park. Five hundred families all trying to register at a practice that was already full.
Any development above 200 homes should be legally required to include:
- Primary healthcare facility, built before the first resident moves in
- Guaranteed school places at a local school or funding for expansion
- A public transport link operational from day one
- Green space meeting Natural England minimum standards
- Electric vehicle charging in every parking space
Not a contribution to a future facility. Actually build it.
