Representation Summary:

no viable travel plan required for developments of 50+ houses.

the only thing that this development will add to is congestion and pollution. as the b1013 is already carrying more cars that its design load 10000+ per day and regularly has traffic jams with average speeds in blackspots of <10 mph in the rush hour how will adding 175 or 330 houses (at least the same number of cars) help the situation

DAVID WILSON DEVELOPMENT RECTORY RD IS UNSOUND BECAUSE IT FAILS TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF
•The proximity and relationship to existing centres, facilities and services ,all local services shops are not within walking distance and very poor public transport from this area therfore increase in car use leading to increased pollution and congestions
•The availability of infrastructure and/or the potential for additional infrastructure to be provided for development in such areas , no plans to increase infrastructure and restricted by local environment.

•The potential to reduce private car dependency; exact opposite will lead to at least a 10% increase in daily traffic on b1013

•The impact on highway network (including availability and impact on existing network, as well as potential for improvements to be delivered) as above no potential improvements listed and damaging negative impact on highway network.

•The relationship of development locations to the District's areas of employment growth , will be commuter housing so adds little to local emplyment growth

not in keeping with local environment
