NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN<br />
Infrastructure<br />
Cllr. Kim Fletcher lists the infrastructure needed in the parish in<br />
light of new development – what else do you want to see?<br />
THE NEED for water, drainage,<br />
power, internet and services,<br />
such as GPs, a pharmacy and<br />
shops, is a given for modern<br />
communities.<br />
However, the sudden<br />
building programme TWBC<br />
has planned for the parish<br />
will stress our existing<br />
infrastructure, so the NDP is<br />
working to minimise this.<br />
A new multi GP surgery<br />
is planned on Wilkes Field,<br />
alongside an improved public<br />
space in the Crane Valley and a<br />
community centre.<br />
New cycle and footpaths<br />
are planned to improve the<br />
links from the outskirts of the<br />
parish to the centre, without<br />
resorting to a car.<br />
Increased local parking off<br />
Angley Road is planned with<br />
improved footpaths to the<br />
town centre and schools.<br />
The High Weald Academy<br />
has been rebuilt ready for<br />
more pupils from a wider area.<br />
ANDY FINN<br />
Formerly known as Hartley Dyke Farm Shop<br />
The lack of employment<br />
and business opportunity<br />
land remains a big concern, as<br />
domestic land is more valuable<br />
than commercial sites.<br />
Drainage in the Crane<br />
Valley, the potential for<br />
flooding and the capacity<br />
of the sewage works are<br />
issues taken up with the<br />
Environment Agency.<br />
Traffic and transport are a<br />
real concern and have been<br />
described in other articles<br />
within this special feature<br />
We need your views on other<br />
infrastructure that may need<br />
improving.<br />
