Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 8008

Received: 13/03/2019

Respondent: Mr Robert Beach

Representation Summary:

- I object due to the increased traffic this will cause in an already busy area.
- The pavements around Whitlocks Station are not safe for pedestrians to walk to the station nor would it be safe to cycle to on such busy roads. The station already can't cope with the amount of cars that wish to be parked there.
- Public transport in terms of buses is not adequate as the services are sporadic at best and only operate hourly.
- The infrastructure can't cope with more housing development and the improvements suggested will not improve an already dangerously busy area.
