Preferred Site Allocations 2018

Representation ID: 19501

Received: 11/03/2018

Respondent: Mr. Ross McGill

Representation Summary:

I object to these proposals because traffic on the A127 is already far too congested at major points during the day- additional housing will only exacerbate the problem. The emissions are already illegal. Local services are few and far between- how will they cope with the additional influx of residents? Our primary schools are fully subscribed, with catchment areas diminishing year on year. Additional housing will only make this situation more untenable. Our schools cannot cope. The destruction of greenbelt land is unnecessary.

I object to these proposals because traffic on the A127 is already far too congested at major points during the day- additional housing will only exacerbate the problem. The emissions are already illegal- I do not want to raise a young family with such high pollution levels. In addition, local services are few and far between- how will they cope with the additional influx of residents? Our primary schools are fully subscribed, with catchment areas diminishing year on year. Once again, additional housing will only make this situation more untenable. As a local primary school teacher, I can confidently say that our schools cannot cope. Furthermore, the destruction of greenbelt land is unnecessary.
