TRDC's Local Plan Proposes almost 1,000 New Homes and a primary school for Kings Langley, on Green Belt land.

If you don't want to see a 40% increase in the size of Kings Langley, you need to comment 

For more than 20 years, The KINGS LANGLEY & DISTRICT RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION (KL&DRA) has been working tirelessly to preserve the character and historic setting of our village.

Never in the past has our village been threatened by so much development that will lead to traffic chaos and overwhelm our already overstretched local services such as schools and doctor's surgeries. 

Recently we encouraged villagers to write to Three Rivers District Council (TRDC) and object to the proposed Moto motorway services area on the A41, just off J20 of the M25. Over 1,600 objections were received by TRDC and the Council reacted to this huge local response by refusing the application.

The KL&DRA also encouraged villagers to respond to Dacorum Borough Council's (DBC) Local Plan which included 145 additional houses on Green belt land at Rectory Farm. Many other residents within the DBC area also responded by objecting to the proposed sites in the plan and DBC subsequently withdrew the plan and are now reconsidering it.

We need to make TRDC do the same by getting as many residents as possible to respond to the Local Plan Consultation.

It is important that individual residents respond as TRDC will take more notice if large numbers of residents respond.

To help, the KL&DRA has distributed a printed Newsletter and a postcard to every household in Kings Langley. The Newsletter explains what the TRDC Local Plan Consultation is about; which sites are included for development in Kings Langley; how to respond to the consultation and we've also provided some ideas of what you can include in your response. The postcard provides an easy way to comment by post. Links to Newsletter & postcard as well as some other useful documents are included on this page.

Please do try and find a little time to tell TRDC that Kings Langley does not want and cannot take this amount of development.

The sites proposed for development in Kings Langley are shown below

At Numbers Farm, Egg Farm Lane - 893 dwellings plus a primary school

At Woodlands Road, off Hyde Lane - 62 dwellings

At the Flower House - 19 dwellings
