Alan Dale Voices His Concerns Over New Homes

Whatever happened to we will not build inside the by-pass if the government pays for the road?

That is the question being asked by Long Lane resident Alan Dale.

Mr Dale is very concerned about the new development that currently proposes hundreds of new houses are to be built to the south of Beverley around Long Lane.

He fears that people who enjoy dog walking and cycling down this Lane and enjoy the lovely views of Beverley Minster, and all the varied wildlife will lose this forever when the bull dozers move in.

Mr Dale has grave concerns for the likes of the Water voles and newts that have already had their habitats disturbed by all the machinery to the side of Willow Lane when they flattened the field into oblivion.

He told HU17.net;

“Why aren’t these protected species being considered and what about the birds, the deer and foxes they all have a right to roam here.”

“Our green fields and spaces and the wildlife they contain are so undervalued especially where a financial gain is concerned.”

“Everyone who lives in Beverley needs to let this council know that we love our market town and its surroundings, and we will not stand by and see it destroyed.”

“If you do not like green fields and open space to breathe in, then move!”

Anyone wishing to voice their concerns about the development has until Friday 5th April and can do so by emailing forward.planning@eastriding.gov.uk
