SOME of the most controversial Beaconsfield planning applications of recent months on one of the town's busiest roads have been passed.
A South Bucks District Council (SBDC) meeting was held on Wednesday, June 20, where plans were approved which will now see 13 residential units comprising of two blocks of six flats and one cottage built on land at 141 Station Road.
Permission was also granted to build 14 apartments, associated parking, and construction of vehicular access at 44-46 Station Road.
Both of these developments had been objected to by Beaconsfield Town Council (BTC) over fears of overdevelopment, highway issues, insufficient parking and visual impact on the street scene.
Kate Snowden, Network Rail spokesman, said: "They have produced a conceptual design and need to work out some more detailed designs and are going to need a few months to do that.
"They have indicated their intention to proceed and we will work with them over the next few months and once they have got their detailed design we will look at those and once we are happy we will go ahead.
"It is a project we are happy to work with Tesco on over the next few months but our priority is the safety of rail passengers. Until we are satisfied that an acceptable design solution has been found then nothing will start in terms of work, but we will work with Tesco to develop the plans over the next few months."
