Respondent: Mr Ivor Wood

Representation Summary:

1. We use the footpaths/permitted ways in this area about twice a week, walking with our dog(s). It is an unspoilt, tranquil area of countryside rich in flora and fauna. We think it should stay that way. It is used frequently by others.

2. With the ever-expanding university and nearby business parks, the roads in this area have been inadequate for the volumes of traffic at peak periods (especially in university term times) for several years.

3. Developer should be required to meet all necessary infrastructure costs, and provide appropriate amenities too (eg community centres, school/nursery etc)
