Preferred Site Allocations 2018

Representation ID: 17983

Received: 25/02/2018

Respondent: Maneesh Jain

Representation Summary:

I live on Priests Lane, near St Andrew's Place, with my 7 year old son.

Priests Lane is already a very busy road with speeding cars and heavy congestion particularly towards Middleton Hall Lane around school opening and closing times.

The proposed development of 95 houses would greatly increase traffic congestion, and impact road safety, particularly for children.

Also, it would place an undue strain on the already oversubscribed/stretched local services (schools, GPs, etc).

An alternative site, or at least adequate road access and additional local services are critical.
