RESIDENTS are invited to have their say on proposals for a housing development on land north of Station Road, Fordingbridge.

The event, which takes place today (Wednesday, February 27), will have the latest plans for the site on display and is the second public consultation.

It runs from 2.30pm until 8pm in St Mary’s Church Hall, Fordingbridge.

The first was held on November 28, last year and outlined plans for up to 250 homes, which are being put forward by Infinite Homes.

The plans sparked concerns from residents over increased traffic in the town as well as pressure on services and the infrastructure.

The site has been allocated as a strategic site in the draft New Forest Local Plan, which has not been formally adopted.

A planning application is expected to be submitted to New Forest District Council in March.
