Revised Development Strategy

Representation ID: 54002

Received: 28/07/2013

Respondent: Mrs Caroline Berry

Representation Summary:

The proposals for further development are excessive in volume, leading to destruction of a beautiful landscape south of Leamington and Warwick and a highly undesirable coalescence of settlements. The minimum separation proposed will be ineffective and the additional traffic volume detrimental to the local community. Oakley Wood Road is already plagued by traffic travelling at excessive and dangerous speed at peak times posing a danger to existing residents. The addition of such a high number of new dwellings in a limited area will further exacerbate these issues without due regard to the quality of life of existing residents.

Objection to proposed and significant developments around the village of Bishops Tachbrook (housing developments south of Harbury Lane, Gypsy sites & development adjacent to village envelope). The proposals for further development are excessive in volume, leading to destruction of a beautiful landscape south of Leamington and Warwick and a highly undesirable coalescence of settlements. The minimum separation proposed will be ineffective and the additional traffic volume detrimental to the local community. Oakley Wood Road is already plagued by traffic travelling at excessive and dangerous speed at peak times posing a danger to existing residents. The village continues to suffer from considerable noise pollution from the M40, a cause of considerable stress for many. The addition of such a high number of new dwellings in a limited area will further exacerbate these issues without due regard to the quality of life of existing residents.
