​Hodthorpe Housing Update ​

I know that a number of local residents are concerned for the impact of the new housing estate near the school, especially the entrance of the site leading onto Queens Road.

I have written to Bolsover District Council to ask why access was not considered from Green Lane to avoid making the traffic situation on Queens Road worse than it already is. I have also asked whether any additional road safety measures have been considered to help improve road safety and mitigate the impact of the new junction.

I will update you all further as soon as I receive a response.
