They are set to be built to the east of the 'heavily trafficked' A6 Roundabout by Rushden
Plans to build 450 homes and a community facility in Rushden have been given the go-ahead by North Northamptonshire Council . The site has been awarded outline permission with the final layout and details to be considered at a future date.
They have also proposed that 30 per cent of the houses will be made affordable, which is in accordance with the Rushden Neighbourhood plan. The residential area will be enclosed by Rushden to the northwest, Rushden Golf Range to the south and the "heavily trafficked" A6 transport corridor running alongside to the west.
Developers will also be expected to provide pedestrian and cycle routes to the surrounding urban area and facilities, improve local bus connections to the site, support the creation of a community hub, and contribute towards education services in the area to mitigate the impact of increased pressure on schools.
