I am writing to object to consideration for planning permission to be granted to develop a traveller site at Oaklands, Birmingham Road, Warwick.
I object for the following reasons.
1. Any further development to the small local community already located at the Birmingham Road will spoil their quality of life. You only have to visit Warwick museum to see that this small group of houses has its own identity and has been present as long as the canal and railway.
2. Traffic on the A4177 is already very high. Introducing households with personal and commercial vehicles will create even more stress on a road that is the busiest A Road into the town.
3. The area is not suitable for development due to the negative affect it will have on tourism, and that the area is increasing its tourist footfall. It is an important addition to the town after the castle.
4. The provision of local services will be made worse by any increase in development. The local surgery, and dentists, plus the two schools are already at capacity, any increase will negatively affect current users.
I and my family strongly object to the provision of housing or traveller pitches in the vicinity of the Birmingham Road, Warwick.
