Representation Summary:

WDC need to summarise ALL the implications of ALL the different large scale developments into one place so that the total impact (particularly increased traffic) on any village or community can be understood by WDC or its residents.

Full text:

The WDC vision is limited in scope to what the council is proposing and does not take account of the following large scale developments which are being slipped through the plannig system over the summer holidays all of which have huge implications for infrastructure, particularly the traffic volumes:
- development of Coventry Gateway (including a massive logistic transport hub). This is on the fringes of Warwickshire but will feed into our road system
- probable expansion of Coventry Airport . The plans for this are unclear, but the airport is operating at well under the 900,000+ passenger capacity that is currently allowed)
- development of Stoneleigh Park (1400 more jobs + traffic implications)
- Abbey Business Park (more jobs + traffic implications)
- HS2 - which is being ignored

WDC officers have admitted that a summary of all the proposals need to be pulled together into a 'masterplan' for Warwickshire - but that this is not be done, and there is no sign that this will be done.
