Derby Telegraph

COUNCILLORS SAY LOCAL PLAN HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF CITY
AT least 400 new homes could be built off the A52 in Derby.
The development, if construction went ahead, would be situated on land off Stoney Lane in Spondon right next to the busy Brian Clough Way which connects Derby and Nottingham.
The new plans are just a small part of Derby City Council's new draft local plan. This important document earmarks where new houses can be built in the city over the next 18 years. It details where new homes could be built at other sites including the city centre, Littleover, Chaddesden and Mickleover.
One of the sites listed in the draft document is land off Stoney Lane.
The document states: “Land east of Stoney Lane, Spondon, will deliver a minimum of 400 new, high-quality homes forming an eastern urban extension to the suburb of Spondon.”
