Preferred Site Allocations 2018

Representation ID: 18203

Received: 11/03/2018

Respondent: Mr Shobhit Gupta

Representation Summary:

1. Western Road and William-Hunter Way are always congested, with gridlocks during morning rush-hour and school pick-up/drop times (contrary to what your 'study' suggests).

Further development/housing in car park would lead to more pressure on existing infrastructure, with increased gridlock and delays.

Additionally, increased congestion will be detrimental to both care home on Western Road and fire station on North Road.

2. The proposed development envisages multi-storey buildings. All existing housing is one/two storeyed. This will change the character and feel of existing communities.

Also, new development will lead to reduced privacy (as existing homes and gardens will be overlooked).
