Transport Assessment admits to potential for heavier loadings in sensitive areas with the centre of the town suffering substantially with increased congestion and delay, contributing to air pollution. Consequences are that areas peripheral to Warwick town centre appear to suffer increases in delay and environmental damage/pollution.
Mitigation proposals designed to channel more traffic into Conservation Area rather than taking it away from sensitive areas, including Banbury Road.
Channelling traffic from new development areas into the town centre via Banbury Road will have major adverse impacts; Castle Bridge being the bottleneck with weight restrictions and single lane traffic in each direction.
