Plans to build up to 65 new homes in the Somerset village of Street have been approved, despite ongoing concerns about road safety at the development’s access point. Crossman Acquisitions Ltd., a Bath-based developer, originally proposed up to 71 homes on Moorland Road near the village’s household waste recycling centre, but reduced the number to 65 after discussions with Somerset Council planners.
The development, located at the northern edge of Street adjacent to existing allotments and the Moorland Road estate, will extend Moorland Road northwards to provide access.
