Representation Summary:

1. Little evidence that local population growth requires more homes.
2. Large scale, high density & proportion of affordable homes (175) will change community feel.
3. Current road conjestion along Rawreth Lane and Lower Road as a result of recent new housing developments will be made worse with additional 500 homes - 500-1,000 more cars travelling into and out of the village. Existing road network cannot cope with current volume of traffic at peak times.
4. Doctor's Surgery: 500 homes will mean 1,500-2,000 more people placing a strain on health services.
