Work is now well under way on the much debated Abbotswood village. Stuart Thorpe has been kindly taking photos of the latest happenings. The latest ones show the beginnings of a roundabout in Braishfield Rd near the top of Woodley Close. The new lamppost's have now connected. Things are certainly moving, houses have now started  appearing at a steady rate.  The Braishfield Rd roundabout appears to be the main entrance. There's also an entrance in Sandy Lane and also in Cupernham Lane (Presently closed off) near the Fishlake roundabout. Test Valley Borough Council received an application for 800 dwellings on this site, along with local facilities including a local centre, pub, community hall, doctors’/dentists’ surgery, offices, nursing home, open space, landscaping etc.

 

 

 

 

 The line of the kerbstones suggests a fairly sharp bend which should certainly slow the traffic down.
