    Ye gods; someone's actually building on a brownfield site! And what's more, a big chunk of the development will be affordable: http://www.warwickcourier.co.uk/news...2018-1-7281920

    It's alright building these houses, but can the local infrastructure cope?

    They'll worry about that when they realise they realise they can't get to council meetings any more.

    Good to see brownfield sites being used for housing. I'm not sure about the reduction in parking for the station, though, as we're all meant to be using more public transport - although that could be their plan.

    I just love this expression...
    75 per cent of which will be affordable

    118 flats and 94 houses.. Public parking reduced to 100 spaces... How will that work?
    Cool

    It won't Shizara. All new builds ought have at least one parking space allocated to them.

    I see there's discussions abounding about making it illegal to park on pavements. That'll be interesting!

    Nuneaton just can't seem to get rid of them: http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/new...amage-11311528

    I'm not surprised the police aren't giving any support; I reported an incident at Stratford station recently, and the 3 'plastic police' on the front desk very obviously couldn't be bothered.

    That is absolutely shocking. No public transport out that direction, I can only wonder on the local congestion.

    Yes, that seems to be one of the big concerns the locals have. No doubt the local MP (Nadhim Zahawi?) will hold a summit in the run up to the next General Election to 'address' the issue.

    Proposed changed to a planned development in Nuneaton: http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/new...eaton-11471240

    I suspect profit's more of a concern than planning regulations.

    Kenilworth's just becoming a student-filled suburb of Coventry: http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/new...pping-11507942

    Coventry centre has largely been turned over to students. A strategy I find to be very short sighted.
