Revised Development Strategy

Representation ID: 56899

Respondent: Kevin Forsyth

Representation Summary:

Can't understand the need for such a number of homes unless the Council is expecting an influx of new residents from outside the district. Where are all these new people going to work?

I live on St Nicholas Church Street in Warwick and worry about the effect this plan will have on the town and the area I live in.

More vehicles on this road will lead to severe congestion and levels of pollution even higher than the current illegal levels.

The infrastructure around Warwick is already unable to cope with any kind of incident on nearby roads such as the M40 and A46; I have been caught up in traffic resulting from incidents on the M40 causing it to back-up into the town and surrounding roads and it has taken more than 1 hour to travel only a few miles home.

I also can't understand the need for such a number of homes unless the Council is expecting an influx of new residents from outside the district. Where are all these new people going to work?

We already have a significant development taking place on Chase Meadow and don't need the additional number of homes proposed.

I strongly object to this plan and ask the Council to vote against it.
