Neighbourhood Plan Draft Review

The Neighbourhood Plan team have over the past few months been undertaking
a review of the Neighbourhood Plan which was overwhelmingly agreed by
referendum in May 2019, in accordance with the Local Plan guidelines which
specify we should review the content regularly to ensure it continues to comply
with legislation and maintains it’s integrity. Our aim is to hold a public forum in the
coming months to show any changes we are proposing to make and give
people an opportunity to provide feedback on them.

Traffic Working Group
We heard proposals from the newly formed Traffic Working Group who have
been meeting regularly to discuss what can be done to help manage traffic
better in the area and make the roads in and around the Parish as safe as
possible. Many suggestions were made, such as residents surveys, traffic surveys,
increased signage and a visit from Dorset Highways. The residents survey will be
drawn up and circulated shortly and then further measures will be decided based
on the results of the survey.
