Way too big. I've been to the pavillion area and there's just going to be soo much traffic in that area. You probably won't even be able to move. The Beaches are crammed anyway during the summer. There's not going to be any point in putting a Ferry terminal if all the people can do is just stand around.

I`m not from Weymouth,but have holidayed there many times,& loved the place.It`s a quintessentially English seaside town,with a beautiful beach.I dare say it does need some re-developement,but,PLEASE don`t over-do it!The view from the beach is LOVELY-a panorama of sand,sea & sky- shame to lose it by building too high!Another thought,I seem to recall awful traffic in that area of town at times-how will the roads cope with the extra traffic?Perhaps re-develop,but on a slightly smaller scale?Also,the flats being planned-are they for local people,or rich people with yachts?I hope nobody minds an outsider proffering an opinion?

Went to the meeting last night and it is interesting that those against the scheme in the main, tend to be the older residents and those in favour, tend to be the younger residents. Let us move forward into the 21st century and look after the future generations.

It's about time the small minded local councilers and the comunity got behind this and many other schems to put Weymouth on the map. Get a life and wake up and smell the coffee. It needs to happen ! Stop living in the good old days. Time moves on, if you don't like it. You should move on to

Initially I was in favour of the then proposed Pavilion site development...NOT ANYMORE!THIS latest HH proposal is a monstrosity and Weymouth doesn't need it or them!

Too big a development which will lead to too much traffic in this old part of town wher there is no space for additional roads to handle all the additional traffic created. re-develop yes, but on a smaller scale.

Too many flats, too many floors,too much extra traffic, too big a marina.

The ring-leaders of this protest group are a bunch of hypocrites whose main objective is to preserve their house values and views! Their disinformation and propaganda is scandalous and they offer absolutely no alternative. Think of the future for once!

I agree the Pavillion does need some improvements, but not on the scale that the developers propose. I totally disagree with the proposed developement. Also, as has been pointed out on numerous occasions, our roads infrastructure cannot handle the traffic congestion we get now, so god help us if this new development gets the go ahead. I'm surprised a heliport hasn't been suggested, at least this way the people who can afford to live in the proposed flats (obviously the locals have not been considered), will be able to fly in! Weymouth is a traditional seaside town, this is what draws the tourists back year after year, not a haven for the rich (although I suspect the local council would prefer this). Please don't change Weymouth beyond all recognition. The developers have had a hey day on Portland, and look what has become of that!
