Dear Sirs,

I wish to register my objection to the proposed site GT04 at Harbury Lane , Fosse Way, for Gypsies and Travellers.

My comments and concerns are as follows:

1. Access to local amenities.
It is my understanding that the nearest Doctor's surgery has no capacity for the influx of new patients and that the nearest primary,junior and secondary schools are already at capacity. This follows on from recent and current new build development in Harbury, in addition to existing demand from the existing communities

2.Travel
The site is definitely on a High Risk travel route with more than 12 serious accidents in the last 3 years, including 1 around 2 weeks ago. No bus stop is available on the Fosse Way and providing one would , in my opinion, be extremely unsafe for road users. The Fosse Way is already a very busy and dangerous road, especially with increased Jaguar/Land Rover traffic during core periods and indeed otherwise. I truly cannot see how the risks associated with this site make it a realistic option to be considered

No path or pavement exists to enable walking anywhere , and cycling is dangerous on the busy commuter roads. Surely children cannot be expected or allowed to stand on a dangerous road to wait for transport to school.?

3. Rural Environment/ Other
The proposed site will clearly have a visual impact from Harbury and The Fosse Way The proposed site currently has no mains gas, mains sewerage or drainage There will potentially be significant potential for damage to wildlife habitat It is a flood risk area often flooding at the end of Middle Road, Harbury Lane and fields .
