Teignbridge District Council have published a Long Term Development Plan which includes proposals for a substantial urban development on the south west boundary of Exeter next to Alphington. These proposals, which are for a development of approximately 2000 houses, two primary schools, one secondary school and a park and ride scheme, will have to go through several stages of consultation and procedures. This is your opportunity to look at the plans and ask officers from Teignbridge Council questions and express your views.

Cllr Margaret Clark and Labour Candidate Rob Crew feel that it is essential that, like all developments, this new scheme has the appropriate infrastructure, including proper transport links, health centre, sports pitches and open space. It is vital that this development does not have an adverse effect on the roads and resources used by the existing Alphington residents.
