CAMPAIGNERS against the Wessex Fields development have submitted a petition of objections to the planning application being considered by Bournemouth council.
The scheme, which will see a new junction created on the A338 at Holdenhurst village to feed development on the Wessex Fields site by the Royal Bournemouth Hospital, has been put forward by the council, alongside Dorset County Council and Dorset Local Enterprise Partnership.
The petition has been put together with a list of objections by campaign group Friends of Riverside, as well as Holdenhurst Village Parish Meeting.
A protest is planned outside the town hall at 10am today.
Several statutory or otherwise regulatory bodies have now made their own comments on the application. Wessex Water, Natural England and Dorset Wildlife Trust have all expressed concern about the need for greater clarity in the application on how the impact of the scheme will be mitigated.
