DETAILED plans for 130 new homes near Bridgwater have been approved – despite councillors complaining that existing traffic problems on the A38 have not been adequately addressed. Barratt Homes applied to build the homes on the A38 Taunton Road in North Petherton, between the existing Portman Drive homes and the town’s rugby club. Sedgemoor District Council granted outline permission for the homes in January 2020, establishing a new access road to link the houses with the main road between Taunton and Bridgwater. The council’s development committee has now approved the detailed designs and layout of the houses, with the developer looking to begin construction later in the year.
