Warwick is known worldwide as a town of historical importance in Britain's history. This is the main reason why it's so popular with Tourists. Unfortunately the continued development surrounding the town is changing it's character and affecting its history forever.
The area around Warwick has undergone significant development over the past 20 years with various large Housing estates (Chase Meadow, Hatton Park and Warwick Gates), Retail, industrial & Business Parks. This is already placing an overburden on the local area.
Further development increases the urban sprawl into the surrounding countryside and increases the local population (permanent and transient).
Warwick was designed to deal with 17 and 18th century traffic and is already choked by traffic congestion and grid locked at rush hours.
Many of the existing local large employers for example on the Technology Park do not employ the local population, but people from further afield, which adds to the local congestion in/out and around the town. Some do relocate, but this only creates a demand for further housing, more school places etc, etc.
The ongoing development in and around Warwick is not sustainable.
