-Traffic caused by 200 extra houses plus a care home would cause a dramatic increase in traffic in all the local roads. Honeypot Lane is already a cut-through from London Road to Weald Road the 20mph speed limit isn't working. There would be major problems with traffic wherever the entrance to the site was located.
-There are many safety risks and extra pollution
-Green Belt land should be protected
-Local schools and doctors surgeries are at capacity
-Site doesn't meet Council's Spatial Strategy
-Development would exacerbate flooding and drainage problems
-Not a good allocation. A deeply flawed plan.
- The traffic caused by 200 extra houses plus a care home would cause a dramatic increase in traffic in all the local roads. Traffic at peak times is already very heavy and causes long tail backs at all junctions leading onto London Road. Honeypot Lane is already a cut-through from London Road to Weald Road and traffic speeds through the road ignoring the 20mph speed limit. There would be major problems with traffic wherever the entrance to the site was located
- There are many safety risks and extra pollution
- This is important Metropolitan Green Belt land and I feel strongly that such land should be protected
- Local schools and doctors surgeries have no capacity to support the additional residents
- Site was previously rejected as it did not meet Council's Spatial Strategy, nothing has changed
- The development would cause flooding and drainage problems in the area. The gardens in some houses backing onto the site already experience problems
- This is not a good choice for such a development. A deeply flawed plan
- Please take my views into consideration.
