BRAND new bird's eye view footage has been shared of work progressing on a 120-home development.
Kidderminster Drone, a social media channel which shares drone cam footage of locations across the town and beyond, has shared an update from the Habberley Road development.
In the video, some of the homes appear to near completion, with roads on the new estate, which is called Habberley Park, previously being created.
The properties are being built by Vistry Mercia, part of the national housebuilder Vistry Group, under its Bovis Homes brand.
As part of the planning agreement for Habberley Park, Vistry Mercia has agreed to pay around £370,000 for education and £76,800 for healthcare, as well as providing funding for a range of transport-related projects including £291,532 for highway infrastructure, £225,491 for school transport, and £20,000 for a pedestrian crossing improvement.
The homebuilder will also contribute around £167,500 towards Habberley Valley Local Nature Reserve.
But there was opposition to the plans, with the Stop the Habberley Road Development Group being set up.
The group staged two protests at the site, with hundreds objecting to the plans after raising traffic concerns and other issues.
