Objects to the site due to the following: It is located on an ancient roman road, the Fosse Way and on the archeological register. It is a high risk traffic route, which has been the subject of 12 serious accidents in the past three years. The site could not be integrated into the landscape without harming the character on the area as it is visible from all angles. There is no easy access to gp surgeries and schools. Proposals to build at Radford Semele and Sydenham will already put pressure on services. The bus stop is over grown and situated on the main road with no cycle ways or pavements. The proposed site may impact on local ecology and wildlife habitats,including protected species.
