Broomfield Homeowners and Residents' Association (BHORA) are appealing for support from members of the public for their campaign to change plans for new flats which Notting Hill Housing Trust is set to build along the North Circular Road. BHORA want as many individuals as possible to send in separate objections to the planned construction on "Site 6" - for details of the plans, see this earlier report.
Caroline Chenier, Chairman of BHORA, has sent the following message to other campaigning groups requesting their support:
HELP OPPOSE THE A406 FLATS at site 6, Bowes Road between Powys Lane and Pymmes Close.
Send an objection letter to Enfield, which you can download from the BHORA website: www.bhora.org
Under the North Circular Area Action Plan, Notting Hill Housing Trust have planned a number of sites for development of blocks or high rised flats along the A406. This development will greatly increase the density of the population in the small local area, with little or no provision for the increases in demands that will be placed on the social infrastructure. This includes a lack of parking spaces for the flats which means that the surrounding roads will effectively end up being an overspill; and the lack of provision for both drivers and pedestrians to access or exit the flats. Risk Assessments of the site performed by BHORA show a very high risk of danger, of which Notting Hill have not considered.
Many BHORA residents want to see a revision of the development plans to provide sensible housing sympathetic to the surrounding area bearing in mind the impacts stated above. These are some of the points raised in the objection letter against one of the sites (i.e. site 6, Bowes Road), which you can download from the BHORA website.
Please help support this campaign by taking a few minutes to download and send the objection letter today.
