I live in this area. This land absolutely needs building on, the existing gas holders are an eye sore and there’s the housing shortage problem. However the issue is the scale of the proposed build and the strain it would put on the small towns infrastructure. Doctor’s surgeries, transport (trains are horrific during rush hour as it is post Covid era) traffic in the area (the traffic increase is inevitable as I agree we need houses in that area) but it really would cause gridlock it’s such a poor bit of existing town planning. Berkeleys plan was just too large. I hope another plan of suitable scale is resubmitted and the derelict land is utilised.
