Outline approval for Eastern expansion

Outline approval has been given in Swindon today on the eastern expansion.

The eastern expansion has been given outlined approval for permission to build an extra 2500 housing development. Located on the eastern side between the A419 and the A420. A mixture of housing, shops, sports hub and a new primary school is on the map.

At this stage it is only outlined approval, however there was some mixed reactions from Swindon residents about the go a head. "more jobs are needed in Swindon before the go ahead is approved for 2500 houses"

The planning committee are du to meet up again soon.
