Doctors Surgery
There is currently no doctors surgery in Hardwicke and trying to get an appointment at Rosebank/Severnvale Surgery in Quedgeley or Kingsway takes 6 weeks – which doctors surgery will the new homeowners go to?
More Development
Tritax Symmetry have submitted a new hybrid planning application (S.21/2579/OUT) for an employment development for Storage or Distribution Uses (B8), ancillary offices, energy centre, landscaping, amenity areas with a new access on land adjacent to Javelin Park near J12 of M5.
Details can be viewed and comments submitted by 15th December 2021 via the Stroud District Council Planning Portal 
The Incinerator
This was going to be an ugly eyesore and yet there is something oddly hypnotic about this piece of infrastructure. Let’s hope the owners of the new houses agree when they look to the south out of their upstairs windows…..
Flooding in field where houses are proposed to be built
Are Redrow playing fair?
Redrow is allegedly one of the higher quality developers so why have they not allowed any response or provided any information ahead of their Exhibition of their plans ahead of the 25th Nov? Is it to limit the dialogue and comments?
Are the roads saturated?
Junction 12 of the M5 is already under total overload at key times during the day. The A38 also suffers badly despite the well needed improvements at the McDonalds Roundabout. How is 1350 more homes going to improve the current saturated road network around Hardwicke, Quedgeley and the surrounding area.
More Development
Does Hardwicke need more houses? Over the past 20 years, we have grown substantially to over 7000 houses. We have expanded with the welcome addition of The Plantation, Dales Wharf, Sellars Farm, Hunts Grove plus other infill and recently had the Incinerator built at Javellin Park. Can Hardwicke and the infrastructure cope with more houses?
