IF THE good people of Bridport have difficulty in getting a doctor or hospital appointment or finding a car parking space in the town now, you can be sure they will have major problems in the future.

This will be caused by the 750-plus houses being built on Vearse Farm land, including the flood plain. As Bridport is a holiday area, some people will be looking to buy holiday homes, and some for retirement homes.

The rest will be too costly for local people to purchase. This development will not benefit Bridport folk looking for homes in the future.
