Revised Development Strategy

Representation ID: 52797

Received: 10/07/2013

Respondent: Tessa McKenzie

Representation Summary:

Although I appreciate that with the number of houses being proposed, Hampton Magna must accept some development, the number of households being suggested is simply too many and is liable to swamp the current village, its facilities and its infrastructure. I have particular concern on the impact of the extra housing on the road network in/out of the village, many of which are basic country roads (i.e. Ugly Bridge Road). Also, the combination of this development with those being proposed at Hatton will also increase traffic on the already busy (and accident prone) Solihull to Warwick road.
