Representation ID: 8929

Received: 15/03/2019

Respondent: Mr Philip Jordan

Representation Summary:

- additional traffic along School Road which was never designed for such volume
- congestion is already bad around the Hockley Heath Academy and clearly unsafe for children
- the junction at School Road / Stratford Road is already congested and dangerous at peak times
- School Road is already used as a 'cut through' with regular unchecked speeding
- School Road is a regular cycle route and increased traffic will increase the risk to them
- the ongoing sizeable Blythe Valley development will potentially increase the use of School Road as a short cut
