Fresh questions have been raised over plans to develop homes off Bell Lane and Foxhall Road in Kesgrave, as forecasts suggest even a small development could generate 18,000 traffic movements a day.
Following news last month that Turnberry – a consultancy firm on behalf of landowners Grainger – had begun early talks over the potential to build 1,300 homes on the site, the firm gave an update at last night’s Kesgrave Town Council planning committee.
In it, representatives from the firm said it planned to have a more thorough conversation over what infrastructure developments the town would want to see, with a new bus route, GP surgery and primary school among some of the early ideas.
Plans to develop a civic centre around the existing aviation museum at the former US radio base are also on the cards.
