Community Bus Trial launches on 22 August

Editor Community, Local News

Service 7 (Bridport Local) is set to commence on 22 August, and will operate on Wednesdays and Saturdays for a six-month trial period across Bridport, West Bay, Bothenhampton, Lower Walditch, Bradpole and Allington.

First Wessex will run the service under contract to Bridport Town Council, with a £2 single/£3 return fare.

Concessionary passes can be used, and while buses will stop at all First Wessex stops, they can also be hailed along the route.

The initiative has been championed by a working group of Bridport Town  Council, Bradpole and other parish councils, the Bridport Local Area Partnership and the Western Area Transport Action Group.

 

Bridport Town Clerk says “The trial period will show whether or not the service can be sustained in the long run, and concessionary pass users will be encouraged to help meet the cost. “It’s very much a – use it or lose it service,”

LOCAL PLAN REVIEW – CONSULTATION OPEN UNTIL 8 OCTOBER

Editor Parish Plan, Planning

West Dorset District Council has agreed the the Local Plan Review consultation document which is available here:

Local Plan preferred-options-main-document

Refer to pages 257 ~ 265 which includes on page 265 the following statement: 

“The analysis of site options around Bridport throughout the Local Plan review process has resulted in no additional site options being proposed in the Preferred Options document.”

This confirms that there are NO DEVELOPMENT SITE ALLOCATIONS within Bradpole Civil Parish (which includes Pymore East)

The Local Plan Review will be available for public consultation between 13 Aug & 8 October 2018. Go to the Dorset Councils site to access the consultation survey from 13 August

The reviewed Local Plan when adopted will underpin development within our area up to 2036 and will sit alongside the Bridport Area Neighbourhood Plan if that is adopted by referendum in the Spring of 2019.
It is likely that the next Local Plan review will take place 5 years after the adoption of this review when  available options for development will again be considered.
