Respondent: Mr Robert Cammidge

Representation Summary:

Norton Lindsey has no significant public transport services. Residents rely upon the extensive use of private transport placing stress on narrow roads with unsighted bends and dangerous hazards. There has been a noticeable increase of traffic in the village following the construction of recent additional housing, placing pressure on the road system and creating dangers for road users. Reducing the reliance on private transport is a key aspiration of Warwick District Council plus creating sustainable communities and decreasing green house gas emissions. The proposal to build up to 80 houses in Norton Lindsey runs contrary to all of these policies.
