Overview

  • Keepmoat has shifted completion targets from summer 2024 through spring 2025 before setting its current weeks-long deadline.
  • Specialist consultants have been appointed to identify and remedy drainage defects that prompted some residents to spend up to £3,000 on repairs.
  • The estate’s playground infrastructure is finished but remains closed pending final safety sign-off from RoSPA.
  • Unfinished roads and uneven pavements have posed hazards for children and caused vehicle damage on Buckthorn Drive.
  • Homeowners have paid full maintenance fees despite incomplete street lighting, pavements and play facilities attracting antisocial behaviour.
