Object to housing Site 18 as around 100 new dwellings is over-intensive and out of character with surrounding homes, will exacerbate existing traffic congestion around the Sharmans Cross/Streetsbrook Roads junction, add pressure to local services, and layout of site is only suitable for a much smaller number of properties, around 30-35 at most.
Proposed Housing Allocation 18 Objection
I wish to formally object to the proposed Housing Allocation 18 which to my understanding is in the region of 100 new dwellings . I think squeezing this many properties into such a small plot is preposterous and well out if proportion to the surrounding homes.
I live live very close to the junction of Sharmons / Streetsbrook / Stonor Park and Dorchester Rd and quite frankly at the moment this is a much congested junction at the best of times . Adding another 100 dwellings will more than likely add 100 plus cars which will happen if this proposal is sanctioned ; not withstanding the additional added pressure on local services .
I used to play on this old sports field and know what the total layout of the site is and as I appreciate there is a shortage of new properties feel that this site should have no more than 30 - 35 properties at the most.
