We have a unique opportunity to make our community significantly safer.
Hertfordshire Highways has confirmed that a safe crossing at Foxholes Farm, London Road is entirely possible. This would be a vital improvement for everyone in Hertford Heath – especially children, seniors, and those with reduced mobility.
While Hertordshire County Council lacks the budget, there’s a clear solution. The Parish Council has been advised that funding could be secured through the upcoming Hertford Heath Neighbourhood Plan Housing Development. This is your chance to guarantee that the crossing is a top priority.
The Parish Council is being urged to listen closely to residents’ needs this time and reconsult on community benefits. This offers a unique chance to secure the vital funding for a safe crossing as part of any new development in Hertford Heath.
This is the moment to make it clear to the Parish Council that this crossing is a non-negotiable part of responsible growth of the village and should come forward alongside the new housing.
This crossing isn’t just about convenience – it’s about protecting lives and enhancing the community’s well-being. It’s about building a Hertford Heath where everyone feels safe and connected.
Join us in urging the Parish Council to put community benefits first in the Hertford Heath Neighbourhood Plan. With the village expanding by 10%, we cannot compromise safety. Guaranteed funding for the crossing must be a non-negotiable part of the master plan of any new development.
We must not let this opportunity slip away. Let’s work together to ensure that the Hertford Heath Neighbourhood Plan works for you, prioritising safety alongside growth. A safer Foxholes Farm Crossing means a safer, more vibrant Hertford Heath for generations to come.
Join us in Contacting the Parish Council to express your unwavering support for a safe crossing at Foxholes Farm London Road, funded through the Hertford Heath Neighbourhood Plan.
As part of the Barclay Grange development, we would build or provide the funding for an array of improvements which would enhance the safety of all residents.
