Schools are either fully subscribed or with few places.
Public transport satisfactory but irrelevant as residents will use own vehicles. Bus stop but no pedestrian links.
Prone to flooding.
Additional traffic on existing busy, noisy road with dangerous junctions. Fosse Way is high risk route.
No mains sewerage, drainage or gas. Electricity supply needs upgrading.
Fosse Way is Roman road where there is likely to be archaeological remains which would be destroyed. Also site of tollhouse.
