A PLAN for 90 new homes has been submitted to Wychavon District Council.

The plan, next to land in Worcester Road, Drakes Broughton will be subject to a consultation until Thursday May 24.

The application by Bovis Homes also includes 36 affordable dwellings, with associated new access and car parking.

So far, one comment has been submitted to planners by Stuart Richards lamenting the increase in traffic the application could cause.

Mr Richards said: "This development is for 90 homes, but a few yards away will be further development of another 100+ homes.

"The traffic will be significantly increased and yet this is not seemingly being considered.

"The village is already had developments and these will overwhelm the school.

"There are already traffic issues in the mornings creating additional pollution and safety issues.

"I am not against development and have not objected to any previously, but I feel the joint development, as that is clearly what it is, will place too much pressure on the limited village infrastructure."
