Yes

Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 1239

Received: 17/02/2017

Respondent: Friends of the Earth (Cities for People)

Representation Summary:

Support much of policy, although the term sustainable economic growth is somewhat confusing. There should be greater ambition for larger number and variety of housing provision in these locations, to provide for all age groups and abilities to create an enhanced churn with these areas.

Is relocation of station such a high priority and for what purpose? By taming the car and reducing car dependancy enhanced connectivity between the station and the centre could be achieved?

Plan will need to be strictly worded to ensure these developments are not traffic generating and Council vigilant in ensuring traffic reduction results.

Is it really of such high priority to relocate the station and for what purpose? Surely by taming the car and reducing car dependancy enhanced connectivity between the station and the centre could be achieved?
