2,200+ homes planned as part of Tring expansion
New schools, green spaces & employment spaces are also proposed in a vision for 2038.
Plans for 2,200 more homes in Tring are being looked at, as part of wider plans for Dacorum.
Some of the ideas aren't new, but people could soon have a say.
The vision for Tring is that it'll become 'an inclusive market town' when this plan for Dacorum is delivered by 2038.
So what will Tring look like?
Well, first and foremost, a lot more homes will be here.
One site, between the town and the station, is set for 1,400 new houses, plus two new schools, a community centre and green space.
Another site, close to the A41 on the way to Berkhamsted, could see 400 homes, plus another supermarket and employment land created.
A new fire station could be built here, as well.
Other pockets of land, seen in this document, show further areas for development bringing the total up to 2,274 homes.
In the town centre, The Forge car park site could be redeveloped into a retail/leisure area, see the Local History Museum moved and still include car parking for shoppers.
What about elsewhere in Dacorum?
This plan actually covers the whole of the district, meaning more development in Berkhamsted, Hemel Hempstead and other towns and villages across Dacorum.
In the draft plan, Councillor Graham Sutton says:
"Dacorum will see significant growth and investment over the coming decades, particularly in housing and employment.
"The Plan outlines the preferred locations for this development and how we can secure the necessary infrastructure to support the growth.
"The Borough hasn't experienced any similar level of growth since the expansion of Hemel Hempstead during the development of the New Town.
"This time around our main towns and villages will need to expand if we are to meet such ambitious housing levels.
"All of this needs to be done in a way that maintains and enhances the outstanding qualities of Dacorum – its vibrant communities, high quality countryside and being a great place to live, work and enjoy."
This isn't set in stone, though, and there are plans for an eight week consultation, starting in November.
