Petitioners rejected by council in their bid to block massive 1,100 home development in Mosley Common
Petitioners hoping to see a 1,100 home development kicked to the kerb have been rejected by Wigan Council. A petition, started by campaigner Andy Brown, against the Mosley Common ‘neighbourhood’ proposed by Peel L&P urged the council to rethink their housing strategy which currently has plans for homes to be built on green belt land.
This meant that the petition concerning the site that sits on the border between Wigan and Salford did not have to be discussed at a full council meeting.Peel L&P have promised new amenities to go alongside the development, a new bus stop for the Leigh Guided Busway, and more buses to go on it. Despite this, nothing is guaranteed in the masterplan about relieving the nearby road network, much to the disappointment of residents.
“The Places for Everyone Plan has been developed on this basis. The public examination of the Places for Everyone Plan includes a detailed assessment against the tests of soundness set out in national planning policy, including whether the plan is justified. This letter means that the council will not investigate the matter further, but follow the guidance of the review into the Places for Everyone plan currently underway. Addressing Mr Brown’s point that a green belt site allocated in Bury was thrown out by their council, Mr Thatcher explained that “exceptional significant additional opportunities for housing in the urban area were identified by Bury Council in their 2022 update”.
