LDP - Proposed housing Allocation 18
I am writing in objection to the proposed redevelopment of the playing fields on Sharman's cross road.

As a local resident (94 Stonor Park Rd) I am concerned with the increased volume and density of traffic. The local amenities are also stretched (I currently attend the medical practice on Gospel Lane) due to the lack of a local medical centre.

On the road parking is already an issue on Sharman's Cross road, this will only increase with the proposed development. As a cyclist the road is already busier than I would like, again only to get worse with the increased levels of housing traffic.
