Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 6544

Received: 31/01/2019

Respondent: Stewart Millman

Representation Summary:

By increasing the housing in the Sharman's Cross area will significantly increase the traffic. Currently there is a fundamental problem with traffic volume along Sharman's Cross Road and with the junction with Streetsbrook Road. During rush hour it is nose to tail for 1.5 - 2 hours causing pollution due to the stationary traffic. During school run time Sharman's Cross is quite dangerous due the the parked traffic along the road, reducing it to one lane. Therefore in combination with school runs and rush hour the whole Sharman's Cross/Streetsbrook Rd area is both dangerous and polluting.
