The development to the east of Whitnash will have a significant detrimental impact on both the town and wider area. At present the railway line provides a clear boundary to the town and access to open countryside thus enhancing the quality of life of residents within the town. The proposals are excessive for an area that is already stretched in regard to the capacity of local schools, medical facilities and transport infrastructure. The area has traditionally been agricultural land, with historic interest and should remain as such. Flooding has also been a significant problem in the proposed area in the past and this development will only worsen this. Taking in to account the additional proposals around Warwick Gates, the area south of Leamington will be changed beyond recognition by the local plan. Such large scale development focused on such a small area is unsustainable. This is a development that the majority of residents within the district do not want and should not therefore be given the go ahead.
