Another highly contentious factor for any Traveller community and peaceful integration could be the loss of local jobs.
The proposed site would result in the loss of 40 local jobs and an anticipated loss £2m to the local business community (shops pubs and restaurants used by visitors to the established Warwickshire Exhibition centre). The centre had 33000 visitors in 2012
There would be no opportunities for travellers to live and work in the same location thereby omitting travel to work journeys. No gas,drains or electricity and poor broadband. As has already been emphasised car travel would be necessary in all aspects of life on this site.
In conclusion the proposed site GT02 is not at all conducive with the aims of the local plan and can only be seen as a situation that would not only put travellers and their families at risk but also not give them the opportunities of integration and lifestyle this plan purports to support.
