Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 7993

Received: 13/03/2019

Respondent: Mr George Sutton

Representation Summary:

The Tythe Barn Lane / Tilehouse Lane junction already experiences congestion in the AM and PM peak hours. Similarly, the main junction out of Dickens Heath is crippled during the AM peak and would be overwhelmed with any additional development scenario.

In close proximity to the allocation site is Tyburn Coppice Ancient Woodland. Any development on the site of the rugby pitch would potentially result in an adverse impacts to ancient woodland, which is irreplaceable habitat and affords great protection through the NPPF.

Without strategic highways improvements to junctions named above, I do not support this site allocation.
