More Plans To Turn Dunsfold Park Into Housing

FinalGear · April 16th, 2008, 12:00 PM

Plans to turn Dunsfold Park and it's runways into a housing development have been proposed before, but squashed by locals concerned about increased traffic. Or so we thought.

Seems the plans aren't dead as they, or similar ones, have recently been submitted to borough council. The plans include 2,600 houses and other amenities.

If the houses were to be built, this would obviously mean that Top Gear would have to move as they need their hangar and runways.

Luckily, the general consensus on our forums is that like in previous years, any plans for building there will fail because the residents won't want the extra traffic.

We can all sigh in relief.
