Hopeful homeowners have been left in tears after a housing developer reneged on promises to have their dream houses completed in time.
One buyer at the Pavilion Gardens development in Kew says that massive problems with ongoing groundworks mean he has been waiting nearly two years to move into a house he bought in 2016.
He says he will have to wait at least another three months before he can finally plan to move in.
The site has been plagued by a number of issues and developers are said to be frustrated by the unavoidable issues due to bad weather and poor ground conditions.
Kew Flooding Dangers
Boundary Brook that edges on the new Blowick Moss housing developments.
Flooding is a very real possibility (if the brook bursts its banks) and this is proven by the latest Environment Agency flooding map.
If the Environment Agency were to stop pumping and remove defences, or if they were to ‘fail’, the land would unquestionably flood once again and devastate the housing infrastructure. This is why the EA is required to indicate this risk on their flood mapping system.
Ecologically obscene
The risk to legally-protected species like the water vole, which is resident in this area
Potentially a risk to human health or even life
Illogical as many large in-town plots are empty, abandoned and unused
Based on fat cat profiteering
Prone to serious flooding risk
A potential traffic gridlock disaster
An overcrowding problem that can only get worse
lack of local services, like schools and children’s hospital, etc
