57 home plan submitted for land near Russell Lane and A41

A newsletter detailing the scheme for land north of Russell Lane was shared with nearby residents in August, following which aIt involves a mix of three, four, and five-bedroom homes with gardens, 87 parking spaces, 114 cycle spaces, landscaping, a play area, and a new road. There are 14 homes for affordable housing included in the proposal.The site was allocated for residential development in the Watford Local Plan, which gave an indicative yield of 93 units.

The Russell Lane development would only be accessible from Hempstead Road. According to the newsletter, this is because discussions with Hertfordshire County Council ruled out any access to the A41 or the A411 Hempstead Road on safety grounds.The conclusion to the proposal says: “Unlike the majority of the recent housing provision in the town, this scheme will provide housing for families.

“In particular the application delivers fourteen affordable family housing units within Watford, which will go some way to meeting the high demand for these units in the town.”“The proposed development is of the correct scale and will complement the surroundings area in terms of design, detailing, landscaping, materials, scale and massing.”

The homes would be three-storey with near-flat roofs. There would be 24 three-bedrooms, 25 four-bedrooms and eight-five bedrooms. The play area would only be 230 square-metres, slightly smaller than a tennis court, but the plan highlights that Goodwood Recreation ground is just 600 metres away from the site.We want our comments to be a lively and valuable part of our community - a place where readers can debate and engage with the most important local issues.
