Use brownfield land first such as Friars Gate where there is better existing infrastructure.

I am writing to state my objections to Site 4 after careful consideration of the facts. I am worried about the flooding levels in the houses that will be built and the houses around and adjacent to the fields as the fields are very waterlogged and not really suitable for building on. I believe the roads around the area cannot sustain the huge increase in traffic that this building scheme would bring. There are only narrow roads around there as it is countryside and it has been a protected area of nature for a long time and is high grade green belt. It is a very busy and social hub for children, adults and local community which would be lost.

I believe you should first start looking at brownfield sites or at the very least sites which would not add to traffic problems like this ste would. There is huge capacity around Friars Gate which allow the ability to leave straight onto the Stratford Road. I believe there are far too many car showrooms where better use could be made of the land to house people which is more important in these times. With careful planning of road networks I believe houses should be built but please please look at brownfield sites first and sites where the infrastructure can cope.
