People living next to ‘overgrown’ wasteland in Arnold say plans for new apartments are a good idea. Proposals have been put forward for nine new flats on wasteland at the end of Cross Street, by Acton Road, and Mansfield Road.
The proposed development is due to have three floors consisting of three one-bedroom apartments and six two-bedroom apartments. As well as this, the plans involve five standard parking spaces, three electric parking spaces, one disabled parking bay and space for three motorcycles.
The plans show access to parking from Acton Road. Residents in the area say the land ‘looks awful’ and it would be better as flats, however, some shared concern over parking and access.
