I recently met residents in Forton to listen to their concerns about the Hollins Lane housing development.

They asked for my support in their campaign to persuade Wyre Council Planning Department to ensure that an effective and sustainable surface water drainage solution from the MCI Greenwood field site is implemented – and one which does not have adverse consequences for the many properties downstream.

I’m pleased to give them my support and I hope efforts are made by the council and by developers to listen to and respond to resident’s concerns.
