400 new homes plan startles Cotgrave locals who are worried Nottinghamshire town 'won’t cope'

Homeowners in Cotgrave worry the suburb ‘won’t cope’ as 445 homes are set to be built. Four separate planning applications were granted permission by Rushcliffe Borough Council in an agenda meeting June 9.

Residents told Nottinghamshire Live that they think the town does not have enough facilities to cope with the new homes set to be built. Maureen Hooks, who lives in Cotgrave, says that it will have a major impact on the area. Maureen added: “Traffic is bad enough as it is. 400 - 500 homes, one car per home. There’s no senior school here, only infants and juniors, they're going to have to get shipped off to Radcliffe. If it’s affordable houses it's fine, you have to put the infrastructure in - it’s not in place for new houses.”

Guy Baker, 58, told Nottinghamshire Live: “I’ve lived here all my life and what’s going to happen is when these houses are built, every patient has got to have a doctor and they haven't got enough to cope. If they have children that’s double the amount of people. Everyone likes the school, that's why everyone wants to live in Cotgrave. They haven’t got enough doctors, people who have lived here will get pushed back for the new people, that’s the downfall.
