Respondent: Barford Residents Association

Representation Summary:

Development on this site will promote Urban Sprawl from Leamington and Warwick to surrounding villages. The surroundings of Warwick Castle Park will be affected.
Increase in traffic congestion on the south of Warwick and Leamington and through Barford will be unacceptable.

Full text:

Development of this site will create growth which will intrude into the space dividing Leamington and Warwick from the villages of Bishops Tachbrook and Barford which could eventually lead to existing settlements merging in direct contradiction of PO3.
The effect of developing this site on the boundary of Warwick Castle Park will change the rural nature of this area and impact on this important District asset.
Additional traffic from this area will use existing busy roads into Warwick and Leamington and create more congestion. Traffic travelling North and going to Stratford will cause additional problems in Barford on the already overloaded narrow roads of High Street and Church Street.
