Arborfield Green is set for a boost with a new Sainsbury’s and shops, fulfilling a long-awaited promise to residents.
This all stems from a legal deal. It aims to support new housing in the area. People in Arborfield Green travel far for groceries. They have waited since 2015 for a promised shop. That promise came with the 2000-home village plan.
Philip Buckman wants the store built fast. Wendy Berry calls the supermarket overdue. Abigail Mowbray thinks her family will gain. She mentions many delivery vans in the area. They drive often to Wokingham for shopping.
Arborfield Green folks need a local supermarket. It was promised in 2015 with village approval. Philip Buckman urged its rapid construction. He feels the project has dragged on too long. Wendy Berry sees it as long overdue too.
Abigail Mowbray’s family of four would gain much. Her family depends on deliveries now. They also travel to Wokingham’s supermarket. This has been happening for seven long years.
