News on Whitehill & Bordon Low Car Design

The digital consultation on low-car design of residential development in Whitehill & Bordon launched on Monday 18th July. East Hampshire District Council is seeking the views of local residents on housing designs that could support low-car lifestyles in Whitehill & Bordon.

In just the first four days of the consultation being live we have received over 90 responses and more than 500 residents have viewed the website! Thank you to all those who have already taken the time to provide feedback on the residential designs and offer us your opinions.

If you haven’t yet had chance to look at the designs, then please have a look here and let the Council know your thoughts.

The responses already received show great thought and opinions, with key themes occurring.

Keep a look out for the next phase of our consultation launching at the beginning of August!

We are aware that a common mention in the responses to date is that a suitable alternative transport network is required if car use is to reduce.

Consequently, the consultation will launch a second survey to sit alongside the low-car designs, but this will be focused on residents telling the Council how they currently travel in Whitehill & Bordon, as well as to provide feedback about what further transport improvements could occur to help reduce the amount of travel by car.

Make sure you are signed up to receive updates about this next phase of the consultation. If you have already provided a contribution to the low-car design questions don’t worry, you can re-visit the website and respond to the travel survey once it is live.
