Claire Jones has been out in the Woodside area of Blackshots gauging residents’ reaction to the proposed development of the local college site.
Claire said: “The strength of feeling in the area is immense. Most people I spoke to believe this would be damaging for the area. Parking is already a huge issue in Carlton Road and Grangewood Avenue. Schools such as Woodside and the doctor’s surgery on King Edward Drive would struggle to accommodate the increase in population.
“Many resident feel incredibly let down by the level of consultation there has been with them, and with the council only fighting for green spaces when it suits them.
“I will continue to meet with residents to hear from them their views and make sure that their voice is heard by the council and developers.”
