Cllr Luke Shortland on a site-visit to Regina Road

Many will remember the Regina Road estate as the subject of a harrowing ITV documentary about the horrific conditions which the previous Labour administration left Council tenants living in. Good to see that the demolition of the first block has already begun. These residents deserve homes they can be proud to live in.

I look forward to studying the next pre-application scheme when it comes forward, in anticipation of the full planning application being submitted.

Was good to speak to officers about current suggestions for the heights of the buildings, as well as plans for practical access to the site (eg bin collections & deliveries), and also discuss how the outdoor amenity space can be improved from the current underused offering.
