Housing association Bromford has submitted a planning application for sites at Smithfield Rise and Wissage Court.

If approved it would see a total of 12 garages removed across the two locations.

> “There is large demand in the area for additional parking – the garages are in low demand and are falling into disrepair and would require significant investment to refurbish.”
