Vicarage Field Development

Apart from the improvements - and from the artist's impression it looks better - to St Awdry's Walk (see below), the main changes proposed are:
  • Linking Vicarage Drive to St Awdry's Road
  • Service road from Ripple Road to be new entrance, with a new ramp to the roof level car park along the side of the existing building
  • Ground level car park to have housing built on it
  • New tall building above Station parade entrance.
  • New "car park ... on the eastern side of the existing building"
The blurb makes many references to sustainability and reducing reliance on cars and it says that the centre will be "more pedestrian oriented", but I note there will be "the same number of [car] parking spaces as the existing centre."
