Preferred Options

Representation ID: 46702

Received: 23/07/2012

Respondent: Joanna Illingworth

Representation Summary:

The proposed development to the north of Warwick and Leamington is wrong in principle. The location doesn't have the infrastructure to support it, and will require the building of a new road and bridge over the Avon. An infrastructure project on this scale will then be used to justify further development, leading to the coalesence of communities - Warwick and Leek Wootton, Leamington, Hill Wootton and Kenilworth.
This flies in the face of national Green Belt policy and the declared aims of the Preferred Options. It also looks to be unsustainable with regards to transport.
