Guernsey Housing Association (GHA) said it could now begin its master plan for the Parc le Lacheur site near The Bridge, with a planning application for 150 homes set to be submitted at the end of the year. GHA chief executive Vick Slade said getting the go-ahead for flood defence work had been critical to the future of the former vinery and plans included a mix of private and affordable housing. The Committee for the Environment & Infrastructure (E&I) said the flood defence plans should "unlock" other development opportunities in the area.
