The need for a rolling programme of building work on all edges of the town has been reenforced with the consultation on the Eastern Development Area.
Never mind about the houses still being built in North Swindon, or the lonely looking few houses in the very green Front Garden, lets get strategised for constant growth up to the middle of the century.
Swindon Centric Says ; The consultation ends on the 15th of June, so if you wish to, make your voices heard.
Following the flooding of the area in July, developers carving up the Front Garden area have assured us that the homes to be built there will not flood.
They've even spun that news by saying it wouldn't happen even in the worst floods in a thousand years.
So that means the houses in Wichelstowe will either be the best designed against flooding like the ones in the Netherlands, or that the developers are telling porkie pies.
Swindon Centric Says ; Does anyone in one of those insurances offices along Commercial Road want to give us a rough assessment of what it might cost to insure against flooding on one of these houses? Go on, quote us wet, or dry!
