  • Fleet to Greywell
    Fleet to Greywell Customer information event Project overview • 10 million investment into futureproofing the drinking water network • Planning to install 12 kilometres of water main between Fleet and Odiham • At present, the project is set to begin in June 2021 and be complete by April 2023 • New pipe will allow us to draw in water from other areas of the county to counter a predicted rise in demand in Odiham, Greywell and towns to the west – including Basingstoke. • Pipe will be laid predominantly along the highway, although some sections will involve digging in rural areas. A series of road closures will be required • Working closely with all of our stakeholders, customers and landowners to minimise disruption to businesses and the local community 2 The route • Following extensive consultation with our stakeholders, the selected route is deemed the one which will cause the least amount of disruption to the public and environment • The route will involve passing under a section of North Hants Golf Club. We investigated other options, but nearby roads are extremely congested with existing utilities and the ground conditions are not suitable. • Other routes would require road closures and would consequently have caused mass disruption to customers and commuters due to a long diversion route via Minley Road. 3 4 5 6 Work carried out so far • Undertaken ground investigations for entire route (trial holes and boreholes). • Undertaken environmental surveys for entire route (some ongoing) • Installed 1.8 kilometres of main between Greywell

  • Fleet to Winchfield
    Introduction Both Fleet and Winchfield have railway stations, with a frequent train service between them. There are also regular week day buses to Hartley Wintney. Always check the latest times at www.travelinesw.com. Parking is limited at both ends, particularly at the railway stations, although there is a public car park on the north east side of Fleet Pond. Part of this second section of the Brenda Parker Way, between Fleet and the Blackbushes Road, crosses land used by the Army at Aldershot but which has public access along many tracks and paths open to walkers but where there are few official public rights of way shown on the map. Defence Estates (Ministry of Defence, MOD) have given permission for the Brenda Parker Way to pass through this land on the basis that users understand that military training takes precedence over public access and that you may be asked by the military to make a deviation from the route. Walkers should read the note below and take a moment to read one of the official notices sited at the entrances to the military land. Users of the route should stay on the paths as they cross the training area. A consequence of the long-term military use is that a large area of land has been protected from development and the training area forms a significant part of the Thames Basin Heaths Special Protection Area (SPA). This is a habitat virtually unique in Europe, which explains its current high level of conservation protection. Of particular concern is possible disturbance of ground-nesting birds.

Why we need to have it More new homes are needed across the country and Hart is no exception. The population is growing, the birth rate is dawn for higher than the death rate and more people are living alone for longer. The Council is currently bound by the housing target in the South East Plan, which for Hart is 220 homes a year. The Gov - Fleet Pond ernment intends to abolish this Plan but it will still require ade - quate numbers of new homes to be built. The Council therefore believes it is best to carry on planning for 220 each year, which is actually a lot less than have been built here in past decades. Our special centre pages article in this issue, ‘Planning for Hart’s future development’, tells you about the key proposals in the Plan, including where, when and how change will take place.
