The second stage of the Rectory Farm housing development in Kings Langley has begun, which could see 135 properties added to the site.
According to Kings Langley Parish Council, this could mean “providing access for to up to 20 articulated and rigid lorries every day, plus between 50-60 contractors vehicles”.
There are also reports it could lead to the removal of trees and hedgerows, leaving the site exposed.
Speaking to Kings News, parish councillor Gerry Angiolini said: “The decision having been made, it would be nice to think the actual work could take very little time in order to minimise disruption on the main road through the village, but the developers will not be leaving the site for a few years.”
There have also been repeated requests for the majority of trees and hedgerows bordering the western boundary of the site to be retained or replaced for the benefit of both existing and new residents.
Cllr Angiolini added: “However, there are larger developments being proposed in the village on the back of this development which, if approved, will probably start even before the work here is finished.”
