Representation Summary:

This is supported. There is clearly a need to locate development where it can reduce reliance upon private motorised transport. It has to be accepted that any development will generate some additional traffic, no matter how much it facilitates and encourages the use of public transport and other non-car borne modes. As such, it is essential that the bulk of housing delivery is located where the full effects of traffic impact has been fully modelled and assessed. This has occurred in respect of site BL3 where it is agreed with the Council that up to 750 dwellings can be accommodated in accordance with the principles set out in the Policy P8.
