Consultation on Winchester City Council s plan refresh draws to a close on April 12. This will shape future infrastructure investments and determine which areas can be developed across the district. Save South Winchester Campaign Group is pleading that Royaldown – the scheme to build a new town between Winchester and Hursley – is not considered. Hampshire County Councillor and Hursley resident Jan Warwick said: “We know our local traffic network is stretched to the limit in normal times, so it was important for us to understand the traffic impact from another 5,000 houses, 2,000 space Park and Ride, two schools, shops and commercial sites. The report estimates the site will generate 25,000 additional car journeys everyday piling onto Badger Farm Road, Poles Lane and the M3 junctions”.
