Gypsy and Traveller Site Options
Representation ID: 56007
Received: 28/07/2013
Respondent: Mrs Wendy Carpenter
Object for following reasons:
Amenities: nearest doctor's surgery has no capacity for new patients and nearest schools are at capacity.
Travel: site is on High Risk route with more than 12 serious accidents in last 3 years. No bus stop on Fosse Way and providing one would be dangerous. Fosse Way already busy and dangerous, especially with increased Jaguar/Land Rover traffic. No path or pavement and cycling is dangerous. Not appropriate for children to wait on busy road for school transport.
Rural Environment: Would have visual impact from Harbury and Fosse Way. Site has no mains gas, sewerage or drainage. Could damage wildlife habitat and is in area which regularly floods (end of Middle Road, Harbury Lane and fields).
