Representation ID: 22954

Received: 05/03/2019

Respondent: D Westfall

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

Far too many houses with no apparent provision for extra supporting services i.e. school places, Doctors/Dentists surgeries, local shops to serve the new estate etc.

Change suggested by respondent:

Fewer houses to be built, the total is far too many in too short a period of time.
OR provide the required supporting service first, i.e. extra local hospitals, more local doctors/dentists, much better rail links, much better bus links etc, and then build your new town.

Little or no extra local transport infrastructure with regards to main road or rail links. The existing nearby road and rail links are near bursting point already, esp at rush hour(s).

The plan seems to not take into account the quality of life for the people already living in the area, and just crams more people in.
