Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 8119

Received: 14/03/2019

Respondent: Tidbury Green Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Do not agree. Significant new development will not retain distinctive character of individual settlements. Disagree with public transport comments as high level of car ownership, bus services seldom used and rail over capacity at peak times. Agree with cycling/walking links to station, but requires access using Birchy Close, opposed by Residents Association. Agree highway improvements required, but cannot be provided as road speed restricted/densely developed and will impact on ancient woodland. No traffic studies published. Parking improvements referenced are vague and impossible to achieve. No firm alternative pitches proposed. Support country park on old Site 13 as green belt enhancement.
