High likelihood of flooding - both in valley and crown ward (as at present).
It joins Cubbington Village to Greater Leamington Spa.
Roads would not cope with the extra traffic, a new school would be needed also a local shopping centre.
Loss of wildlife habitat.
Supermarkets are south of the river - the bridges could not cope with increased traffic.
New homes would need a community centre, park play areas, allotments etc.
The development is ill thought out and a result of need of funds for the charity rather than on sound planning principles.
HIGH LIKELIHOOD OF FLOODING - BOTH IN VALLEY & CROWN WARD (AS AT PRESENT).
JOINS OLD CUBBINGTON VILLAGE TO GREATER RL/SPA, WELSH RD & "C" ESTATE RDS IN CROWN WARD JUST COULD NOT COPE WITH THE EXTRA TRAFFIC.
A NEW 1* SCHOOL WOULD BE NEEDED, ALSO A LOCAL SHOPPING CENTRE.
LOSS OF WILD LIFE HABITAT.
ALL SUPERMARKETS ARE SOUTH OF RIVER LEAM, THE FEW BRIDGES COULD NOT COPE WITH INCREASED TRAFFIC FROM THIS DISTANT PROPOSED SITE.
C 2K HOMES WOULD NEED A COMMUNITY CENTRE, PARK PLAY AREAS, ALLOTMENTS ETC.
THE DEVELOPMENT IS ILL THOUGHT OUT & A RESULT OF NEED OF FUNDS FOR THE CHARITY, RATHER THAN ON SOUND TOWN & COUNTRY PLANNING PRINCIPLES, IT SHOULD BE STIFLED AT THIS EARLY STAGE.
