A proposal to build housing on parking spaces in Bristol Close, Pound Hill, has been cancelled by Crawley Borough Council.

A recent consultation gave residents the chance to give their views on the proposals for eight affordable homes – four maisonettes and four apartments – in a three-storey block.

Following residents’ feedback, the council has decided not to take this project forward.

We have been convinced on the strength of the arguments put forward by residents that these proposals should not proceed any further.

A consultation was also held at the same time on plans to demolish 33 garages and build 10 affordable homes – seven houses and three apartments – in Lansbury Road, Broadfield.

Responses to this consultation are still being worked through and no decision has been taken on these proposals.
