Planning Application Imminent

HERSHAM VILLAGE IS IN DANGER

The whole community must be made aware that the application for the Hersham Centre redevelopment is likely to be submitted in the very near future.

This redevelopment could be a DISASTER for our village.

 

The latest known proposals: 

    • Waitrose car park will be developed into residential blocks – up to 6 storeys high, with inadequate car parking
    • Permanent loss of 50% of the parking capacity which will be grossly inadequate for current users, including local businesses, Burhill School, Doctors Surgery and Waitrose
    • Loss of 50% of the retail units in the Centre

This means that: 

    • The future of Waitrose is uncertain
    • Local shops and businesses are at risk, with possible catastrophic outcomes
    • The consequences for all residents will be irreversible
    • The heart of your village will be lost forever

When the planning application is registered, time will be critical. 

There will only be about 3 weeks to lodge an objection.

EVERYBODY must make an individual objection. Block or group objections will only count as one Details of how to object will follow…

When the time comes, it is vital that everybody registers an individual objection

Where are we now? Sept 2024

At this point, Hersham should be proud. We have made our views known loud and clear, without rancour and always relying on facts and reference to planning policy.

After months of stalling, the developers have finally submitted further information, under planning reference 2024/0498

We thank the many people who are taking an interest in this application, and it is entirely appropriate to now express our deep concerns, even anger, about the very recent turn of events.
