Details:
A group of campaigners are stepping up their opposition to recent plans to build residential and industrial developments on green belt land in Newhey and Milnrow.
Concerned residents are holding an open meeting at Newhey Lodge, Huddersfield Road, on Friday 13 January at 7pm. They want to spread the word and discuss their opposition to the plans set out in the Greater Manchester Spatial Framework (GMSF) draft. Local councillors have been invited to attend, with Milnrow and Newhey councillor Andy Kelly speaking at the event.
The GMSF, published in October 2016, states that 227,200 new homes are needed in Greater Manchester by 2035. As part of this, the draft proposes the completion and extension of Kingsway Business Park to the South of the M62 motorway, and the building of 1,500 new dwellings between Newhey and Crompton. However, 120 of those houses are planned for green belt land.
