A COUNCILLOR has warned a “tsunami of traffic” could be headed to Fordingbridge with future housing developments on the horizon. Three areas of the town have been earmarked for development in New Forest District Council’s Local Plan. The sites combined would bring forward a total of at least 870 homes. They are located at Station Road, Ashford (Site 16), Whitsbury Road (Site 17) and land at Burgate (Site 18). Fordingbridge Town Council’s planning committee held an extraordinary meeting to consider two applications from Pennyfarthing Homes Ltd relating to Site 17. A proposal for 63 homes at Tinkers Cross and an outline application for land to west of Whitsbury Road, which could eventually site 400 homes.
