Dear Sir/Madam,

Reference: GT04 Land at Harbury Lane, Fosse Way - Proposed Sites for Gvpsies and Travellers

I wish to object to the proposed site GT04 Land at Harbury Lane, Fosse Way for Gypsies and Travellers.

My comments and concerns are as follows:

1. Access to local Amenities:

* The nearest doctors' surgery has no capacity for the influx of new patients.

* The nearest primary junior and secondary schools are already at capacity. This problem will be exacerbated by the proposed plans to build thousands of new homes in this area.

2. Travel

* The site is on a High Risk travel route with more than 12 serious accidents in last 3 years.

* No bus stop is available on the Fosse Way and providing one would be unsafe for road users.

* The Fosse Way is already busy and dangerous, especially from increased Jaguar/Land Rover traffic to and from Gaydon.

* No path or pavement to walk anywhere and cycling is dangerous on busy commuter routes. Children cannot be allowed to stand on a busy road to wait for transport to school.

3. Rural Environment / Other

* The proposed site will have a visual impact from Harbury and The Fosse Way.

* The proposed site has no mains gas, mains sewerage or drainage.

* Damage to wildlife habitat.

* It is a flood risk area often flooding at the end of Middle Road, Harbury Lane and fields.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require verification of my objection.
