In the past there have been plans to construct retail units, hotels, a surf lake and other things at Junction 27, but these plans seem to have been abandoned, and we now (Jan 2024) believe the only plan is for an improved service station there.
The local authorities of East Devon, Exeter, Mid Devon, Teignbridge were working with Devon County Council to develop a plan for the whole area concerning homes, jobs, the environment etc., with a particular emphasis on finding places to build homes for those who work in Exeter. The GESP suggested building 2200 homes in Sampford Peverell. Because East Devon pulled out of the plan MDDC were advised that the GESP was no longer valid so they voted to work with neighbouring authorities to draw up a new plan, starting from scratch. So far (Jan 2024) there is no further news on this.
After several years of discussions, disagreements, modifications and hearings, the Mid Devon Local Plan was eventually agreed in July 2020. For further information see:
