The picture shows the construction of Flitt Leys Close in 2009. The hot food takeaways can be seen on the left and in the left foreground the site of the derelict filling station, an eyesore which the landowner did nothing about. After Flitt Leys Close was built there was another application to build the two houses now in the left foreground with parking behind. That added to parking pressure in the Close. We wanted rid of that petrol station but my god the present days residents are paying for it.
Half a dozen exasperated residents attended last night's parish council meeting to report a situation going from bad to worse. The takeaway parking is extending further up the Close and many patrons casually block exits for residents. The sit-in facility for Blue Indiya now adds to the duration of visitor parking.
The chair Delise ball confirmed that highways boss Cllr Brian Spurr would attend a site meeting this week or next to see just what it is like - particularly on a Friday night.
This is now...without the 135 homes earmarked for the site further on up, without a school for 150 children and without the planned health centre.
