Objection: 80 Alston Court THORNBURY

Dear DADA Folk,

Interesting that we are beginning to see more three bedroom dwellings in the planning applications.  Unfortunately these proposals tend to lack required car parking spaces and the public transport system can not yet cope with extra travelers.

We keep objecting until the authorities and developers get the point!!

Cheers, Maria
