Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 1037

Received: 12/02/2017

Respondent: Dr Richard Anderson

Representation Summary:

Current infrastructure inadequacies cause major traffic problems in the village centre. New dwellings WILL USE THEIR CARS for work/access to the village shops.
With the proposed almost doubling in village size:
*there will be GRIDLOCK in the village centre
*parking will be impossible.
*station cars already park for 200 yards up the "bypass". This will double.
Proposed infrastructure changes WILL IN NO WAY BE SUFFICIENT TO MITIGATE AGAINST THIS.
Education - the secondary school has low relative academic standards and capacity must expand BEFORE the massive influx to correct this. This won't happen, and I despair for the children.
