Along with many other residents of Myton Road, I attended a presentation of a very tentative local plan at Myton School last March, when we were assured that the total of new houses would be 1,100. Now it seems that that number is to be trebled even quadrupled. I was embarrassed when one resident pretty much called the presentation a bunch of lies. I now think I may have been over-trusting, and that the angry resident was right. If you have been given the impression that residents of this area don't have strong concerns or objections, then you are quite mistaken.

Getting out of the Myton Road these days is more and more a grim prospect of gridlock and endless parking by parents dropping off and picking up their offspring from the schools along this road. The roundabouts at Princes Drive and Banbury Road are ever greater bottlenecks. And what do we hear will be the solution to all these extra houses? Why! Europa way may become a dual carriageway! No new roads to divert the vast increase in traffic. We all had our severe doubts when the March presentation assured us the Europa Way and traffic lights at the Myton Road roundabouts would solve the problem. Even more so whenever we try to negotiate the bonkers new traffic system on Jury/High Street, Warwick, and wonder if we will ever see all the bollards and direction arrows up and intact at any one time. It does NOT give us confidence in the local plan's future road system "solutions".
