Due to the built up area around us Hellesdon needs to keep its green space.

Comment from Mr Evans
GNLP 2173 Rear of Heath Crescent, Hellesdon
We cannot afford to lose more green space on the east side of upper Hellesdon. If this proposal goes through we will be left with one small play area east of Reepham Road.
The suggestion that all traffic from the proposal should be routed through Prince Andrew's Road/Brabazon Road is unrealistic. Apart from the impact it would have on existing residents the road is barely wide enough for two cars to pass. Living as I do on *** waiting to exit with one car for a gap to appear can be taxing. I dread to think what the extra traffic trying to exit Brabazon Road would experience!
This village is already committed to an extra 1,300 homes, its doing it's bit for the 'housing crisis', but enough is enough.
I am totally opposed to this application!!

In addition to the above we have the problem of Medical Practice which appears to be struggling with its existing patient numbers, Schools which are mostly full and a lack of green space for families to enjoy.
