LDP - Proposed Housing Allocation 18

I am writing to object to the proposal to build 100 houses on the rugby ground on Sharman's Cross Road. I am very concerned about the density of the housing on this site, and what this would mean for local traffic (particularly from an intersection with Sharman's Cross Road) and for associated pressure on local services - such as schools and GP practices. I'm also concerned that this level of housing would inevitably lead to more on-street parking in the surrounding area causing additional danger to pedestrians and other road users, and delays to traffic.

I am saddened that the proposal will mean the loss of yet more sporting facilities in our town - as the father of 2 young boys this would mean fewer available facilities close to home.
