Developers of the 750-home Foundry Lea neighbourhood in Bridport will be holding a 'Meet the Builder' session tomorrow (Wednesday, March 1).

Following the approval of planning permission for 760 homes at Vearse Farm, west of Bridport, residents are invited to view the plans and put their questions to developers.

The drop-in session will be held from 1pm to 7pm in Bridport Town Hall on Wednesday, March 1.

This is an open door session for you to come and meet with the team that are involved in the Foundry Lea Development. It will also be an opportunity for you to discuss the recent issue they had with the accidental removal of some hedges and trees, and to hear how they are trying to make amends.

The builders welcome all questions and queries that you may have and there will be presentational material that will give information on the next steps and stages of the development, in advance of a planned start in spring 2023.

They will present updates on:

• Miles Cross roundabout
• On-site health and safety for the purposes of construction and pre commencement activities
• Infrastructure delivery and actions to include electricity, surface water, BT and foul sewage
• Planning application updates – potential house type changes responding to building regulations
• West Road landscaping reinstatement and updates
• Build programme/routes of the construction and strategy
• Requisite statutory sign offs from health and safety providers, NHBC, local authority and statutory service providers

If you are unable to attend the event, all presentational material and more information on the development can be found on the Foundry Lea website, https://www.foundrylea.co.uk/ where questions can also be submitted.
