No to 1680 houses off Cefn Rd/Holt Rd

The Welsh Labour Government have insisted on excessive levels of housing development in Wrecsam. Despite local Councillors twice voting against these plans, developers took the council to court and Councillors were threatend with jail if they failed to adopt the plan. The plan, known as the LDP,  was subequently adopted in December 2023. Councillors have launched a legal challenge which is due to be heard in the coming months.

This plan includes a super estate of 1680 houses in total off the Cefn Rd/Holt Rd. An application for 600 houses has already been submitted by Barratt and Bloor homes, with the Harworth group beginning consultation on plans for an additional 900 houses. Additional applications may also be submitted.

We the undersigned do not support plans for a super estate of 1680 houses off Cefn rd/Holt rd. We object for the following reasons:

  • Loss of Green fields 
  • Lack of affordability 
  • No local need as population is static/slightly declining
  • Pressure on local GP's 
  • Pressure on the Maelor hospital
  • Lack of local Dentists 
  • Local highway at capacity already
  • Pressure on local schools
  • General pressure on stretched local infrastrucure such as water, sewage etc
  • Flood risk

    The impact this development will have on the community, recourses and roads will be horrendous. GP surgeries, schools and other essential provisions are at a maximum level not even mentioning the loss of the green space and wildlife habitat.

    Taking away outdoor space for everyone forcing children to stay in doors increasing mental health issues !

    Utterly ridiculous, can’t get a dentist appointment, barely get a GP appointment, the A&E dept is understaffed and over run but yeah, let’s add more people to the problem. Still trying to make a town into a city 🤣

    Council can’t cope with jobs they need to do to existing houses. Why add more. Just accept wrexham is failing and focus on what is allready here and getting that right.
