Full text:

I along with other road users already spend a lot of time queuing in traffic congestion in and around Warwick. I am very concerned that the proposed housing developments will have a dramatic detrimental effect on traffic flow.
I am also concerned that an increase in exhaust fumes from slow moving traffic in and around Warwick will have an adverse effect on air quality and consequently the health of the local population.
Warwick is a lovely town and a tourist 'honey pot'. Please don't allow it to be spoilt for both the residents and the thousands of visitors who bring tourism earnings to the town.
Building developers and land owners will have money driven interest in greenfield housing estates. Please do not be persuaded by their short term interests to the detriment of the long term interests of the town and residents of Warwick and the adjacent villages.

Thank you
