Revised Development Strategy
Representation ID: 54161
Received: 29/07/2013
Respondent: Barford Residents Association
The concentration of the development in the south of the district - 4550 houses in sites on the edge of Warwick and Whitnash will cause severe strain on the infrastructure. Traffic is already a problem and the mitigation proposals do nothing to address the problems south of Warwick and Leamington. The road through Barford is already grid-locked at peak times with traffic avoiding the direct routes and further large developments in this area will only exacerbate the problem. A major new road to take traffic south from the proposed new development is required.
