Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 7080

Respondent: Ms B Bird

Representation Summary:

Concept Masterplan
I do not support the redevelopment of Arden Academy as described in option 2. It will impact adversely on the village environment and exacerbate the traffic situation even further. The school would have capacity for many more children from the immediate area if fewer were bused in from further afield. This also adds to the traffic problem. We should be encouraging families to school their children close to home, so they are able to walk.
