New searchThis development has no busness being put on this site, there is insurficent infostructure to support any new builds as it barly copes with the current needs,.
Who ever thinks that this will be a well connected and accessible development needs to try opening there eyes, the current road cannot cope at times with the traffic at current levels, the new minor road connection shown on the plans will not be able to act as as a relef road when the current road is closed for the large trucks using the current road, and with junctions shown on the map any traffice using the road will polute the air with in the new development, with such a large short fall in avalable money for this development such things as the new rail and bus services to the development will be the first thing to be dropped, with the railway station and service about the same cost as the short fall in money, the upgrade to the current freigt rail line and the need for a passing loop at the station theres no justification for so much money to be spent for just one train in the morning and one in the evening.
There has been no thought given to services needed to for suce a large development, at the events held in and around Hoo there was no people from the utilatys there to answer questions about water supplys and waste water disposal, and nowhere on the plans was there shown a new water treatment plant, while care was taken to show thiings like sports hubs and a new super market there are no new Ploice or amblance station planed in to this development and with rual crime on the increase that will only get worse.
In all the information I can see no mention of thses "Neieghbourhoods" being made to be climete freindlly ie: all having sloping roofs that face east west and fitted with solar pannels. and if the large amounts of green spaces shown are left I would be supprised given the goverments requarments for number of houses per acre, and the greed of house builders.
One question not answered at the events held in and around Hoo, is why does all of the medway councals new house builds need to be in one place, why are there no other large developments on the other side of the river where theres is far more land and medway councallors living? in section 1.1 Hoo development framework background. its stated that The Hoo Peninsula is a special and distinctive area, so why does medway councal want to distroy it? section 1.1 also states "Future Hoo Housing Infrastructure Fund bid, which is bringing investment into new transport and environmental programmes" yet all that is proposed is one highly dubious rail link due to costs, a bus hub for bus routes thats are being cut back, and one small minor road that is there just for the new houses and not sutable for a didvertionry route the wides area.
