ROESHOT HILL GRAVEL EXTRACTION - effect on road transport

Dump Trucks

Approval was given to extract 3 million tonnes of gravel from the 77 Hectare Meyrick Estates owned site, which would take approx 14 to 16 years with a 4 year restoration project following.
Estimates are for 120 lorry movements per day, and operations running from 7am to 6pm Monday to Friday, and 7am to 12:30 on Saturday. It is unknown as yet when this project will get underway. The Hampshire Planning Portal has information, but no start date is given.

The developer was refused his application for 26 dwellings, including a very large 4 storey block of some 17 flats (8/19/1172). However they have ignored BCP's decision, our local planning policies, and residents objections, and have now appealed to the Planning Inspector in an attempt to force through this unsuitable development.
They also have another application on the same site (8/21/0904) for 21 dwellings including a 3 storey block of 9 flats currently being considered by BCP.
The action committee will continue to work to ensure a more sympathetic development.

Both the Retrospective and New applications for Avon Beach Hut extensions that residents objected to were approved by the Planning Committee on 17th February.

A major development of 875 dwellings was approved under an outline application in 2017, the access to the site will be from both the A35 bypass and Lyndhurst Rd. There are also numerous reserved matters that will require consideration as well as approval of detailed planning for the site.
