Respondent: David Sharpe

Representation Summary:

this section notes that highway improvements are likely at various locations. However this draft Plan fails to identify what improvements are likely or where. Such improvements may themselves have significant local impacts/land issues etc. and need to be identified and assessed as part of the site selection process and not just left for later assessment and consideration when sites may already have been taken forward.

Traffic, road improvements and infrastructure improvements etc are an essential part of a sites potential for development and need to be assessed at the early stage of site selection
