Are you seeing things? No work happening there, and not likely to be. Teignbridge planners have no intention of enforcing the section 106 agreement refering to this development.

What a load of crap. If granted are the TDC planners going to police the designated area to make sure its users havent just left their car in the car park. Not likely.

Sorry to say this but having visited the new Morrisons in Teignmouth last night, there is no way any shop or store in Dawlish can or will compete with the shopping experience on offer there.

Like the way they push the train commuting aspect. In other words Dawlish has no jobs, the buses are useless and the car journey to Exeter is a pain at rush hour. Also the mature landscape has now been destroyed to make room for more houses that local people cant afford and nobody else wants anyway. No mention of any expansion of the over crowded medical and educational facilities. Any idea ...

Rather "gay" colour for a Taxi Chris. Why do you word your posts and adverts as if your a big company, when your a one man band operating from a flat in Starcross. Perhaps you should tell your customers why you had to leave your previous company.
