Like a fish needs a bicycle.
First you need to visit www.thehdone.com or .co.uk and have a scan through. Not really hit google yet because it’s too new (Registered 4th June 2008, along with thehd1.com). The architects and artists have clearly been very very busy.
This is a superb development, full of clever opportunities to spend money and buy fat (sorry – enjoy nutritious food in an exciting “major fast food brand” restaurant).
If last Sunday is anything to go by, a few new roads will also be needed (Total road chaos for 3-4 hrs on Sunday due to the kirklees youth games. No I don’t have clue what that was about either, despite having numerous “youths” living at home).
I also recall the last deluge when the river through the site came within inches (or mm) of flooding the whole area. Lets hope the budget includes a big dredger and a wider river. Build this on a flood plain ? Glad I don’t have to insure it.

I wish them luck – they are going to need it.

p.p.s. The council website hasn’t found it either :-

I wouldn’t worry mate; if Kirklees Council are at the helm, it’ll never happen.
