Andover Town Council responds to Plot 90 decision

Date: 26th September, 2025


Andover Town Council is disappointed that TVBC's Planning Committee approved the planning application for four Industrial units to be built on Walworth Road, close to existing residential properties in Picket Piece, despite strong opposition from local residents.

While Andover Town Council acknowledges the need to attract businesses to Andover, the Council objected to the application on the grounds of overdevelopment, noise, light and air pollution, overshadowing nearby residential properties, increased traffic flows,  and the health, safety and welfare of local residents.
We further believe these large-scale industrial units would overwhelm the landscape, replacing open green fields with an oppressive industrial mass.

Andover Town Council will continue to work with partner authorities and stakeholders to support local residents as construction work commences.
