Overview
- The developer released concept images for a Foxhall Road site showing housing zones and a conservation area tied to archaeology near Dobbs Lane, including part of the former RAF Martlesham Heath runway.
- No planning application has been submitted to East Suffolk Council, and the proposals remain at an early, non-statutory stage.
- Bloor Homes says the consultation period began Tuesday and includes meetings with local residents next week.
- Residents report heavy congestion and pressure on schools and services, raising objections to building on farmland and pointing to proximity to a landfill and municipal waste site.
- East Suffolk councillor Geoff Lynch links the scale of proposals to national policy changes that increased housing targets and suggests more large schemes are likely.
