Objects to GT02 on the following grounds:

I wish to object to Gypsy and Traveller Site GT02 for reasons that follow:

1. Access to Local AmenitiesThe nearest doctor's surgery has no capacity for the influx of new patients.
The nearest primary, junior and secondary schools are already at capacity.

2. Travel

The site is on a High Risk travel route. No bus stop is available on the Fosse Way and providing one would be unsafe for road users. The Fosse Way is already busy and dangerous, especially from increased Jaguar/Land Rover traffic. No path or pavement to walk anywhere and cycling is dangerous on busy commuter routes. Children cannot be allowed to stand on a busy road to wait for transport to school.

3. Rural Environment / Other

The proposed site will have a visual impact from Harbury and The Fosse Way.
Damage to wildlife habitat.
