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

    For obvious reasons

    NHS / Doctors / Hospital

    Schools

    Traffic

    Under extreme pressure


    Less green space for all age groups to enjoy


    No where for the flood water to go to – council houses need to be built not 4/5 bedroom houses that the majority cant afford

    I was at A&E recently and waited 9 hours, when I was finally processed through the system the lovely doctor said what I needed could have been sorted by the local GP, unfortunately you wait ages on the telephone to be told they have no appointments

    Why would you build more when the system can’t cope already

    Regards

    Before more houses are built in Wrexham we need an extra hospital built or extend the one we do have, The staff are under so much pressure with trying to cope with all the extra people in there already. More doctors, schools dentists .

    This is a shocking proposal. Wrexham’s hospitals, dentists, doctors and schools can’t cope now. How the hell are people going to manage

    I use the fields with my dog and grandchildren.

    Also can’t ever get appointments at doctors.

    Also wait even longer at the A&E dept .

    The Holt Road between the Greyhound roundabout and the Golf course roundabout which most of the new residents would use if these new houses are built

    Is already a very busy road with no speed calming measures in place (more cars/pedestrians it will be an absolute nightmare)
