{23 Feb 2020} Proposals for residential development on land west of Awsworth
Cossall Parish Council responded officially to the proposals for residential development on land west of Awsworth writing that we are very disappointed that modelling of traffic flow on Newton’s Lane does not appear to have been carried out. Cossall Parish Council is extremely concerned about the volume of traffic that is likely to use Newton’s Lane and adjoining roads and the safely aspects of this potential increase in the volume of traffic here. We certainly feel that other options must be considered especially because Newton’s Lane and Park Hill already serve large residential developments.

In November 2019 there was a meeting between members of the Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group. This followed the excellent response to the questionnaire which went out to all residents and businesses in the parish.
The purpose of the questionnaires was to collect information regarding what is important to residents of Cossall regarding their opinion about the future of the Parish. While it is important to be aware that we are not able to stop new housing being built, we can have a considerable influence on how our lovely Parish will evolve.
Following the analysis of the questionnaires, this information will be used in setting out the objectives for the neighbourhood plan and some consultation meetings will be held later in the year. The consultation meetings will be for residents of the Parish to attend to discuss the proposals put forward by the Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group.
