Representation Summary:

CFS059 - SANDHILL ROAD
I am writing in response to the possible development of the field at the end of Sandhill Road.. ie, 20 new houses on this small piece of land. This is and will be to the detriment of this road. The infrastructure of this road is totally unable to handle all the large plant that will have to use it for building works. This will be a very dangerous situation and I’m in no don’t an accident waiting to happen.
There are many reasons against this project:- 1. Only one access in & out.
2. Road too narrow especially at the field end.
3. Road won’t cope with increased traffic meaning more maintenance.
4. Increased traffic in Eastwood Rise, Gravel Road, Rayleigh Road and all surrounding roads which are already congested as well as major parking problems…
5. There is an abundance of wildlife in this field that will become displaced , such as: Badgers, Foxes, Muntjac deer & Bats.. I thought the new idea was to encourage wildlife not decimate.
6. It is a quiet road where children can play safely but will become a dangerous rat run.
7. It will devalue existing homes in this road and in surrounding area.
8. If you build here this is obviously going to give you the option to spill into other fields & greenbelt..of which I’m sure you are already aware, and so are we!
This is not a viable option and I strongly OBJECT to the inclusion of this field In your new Spacial Options Document.
