Two outline planning applications have been submitted to Peterborough City Council for Great Haddon, a proposed urban extension in the south of Peterborough located between the A1(M) and Hampton.

The applications, which have been submitted by David Lock Associates on behalf of the Great Haddon Consortium (O&H Properties, Marlborough Oasis Ltd and David Wilson Homes), propose up to 5,350 new homes, 65 hectares of employment land, a district and two neighbourhood centres (with a mix of retail, commercial, community and health facilities), educational facilities (three primary and one secondary school), five Gypsy and Traveller pitches, plus open space, highways, and utility and drainage infrastructure.


Public consultation on the applications will run until 20 January 2010. The plans will be available to view from 14 December 2009 at Bayard Place, Central Library, and Yaxley and Hampton Libraries.
