Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 8715

Received: 15/03/2019

Respondent: Mrs Karen Masterton

Representation Summary:

In 2018 the canal flooded as far as the drawbridge actually flooding some houses however the field referred to in this proposal provide a very important flood plain which definitely reduced the impact on houses further up the canal. If built on any flood water would inundate all the houses along the canal. Traffic is the other issue all roads mentioned in this proposal are narrow country lanes, certainly Tythe Barn Lane is already congested at peak times. Most traffic will turn onto Tile House Lane and onto Haslucks Green Road which are already busy and congested at peak times.
