Those who have put this plan together must: either live North Leamington or outside Warwick without commuting every day south Leamington and/or they do not have children!?
I invite you to go to Leamington at 8am from the M40 Junction 14 and you will discover that you are queuing dangerously on the hard shoulders and spend 30 minutes to do 3 miles to the town centre, this every morning (I experienced this for over 2 years before to move to Whitnash). Or shall I invite you to discover Leamington at 5pm between the town centre and the M40 to discover the joys of traffic jams.

The plans attached at not only going to make enormous traffic issues in these areas, this is a scar on the face of Leamington/Whitnash/Warwick. I'm proud to live in Whitnash and enjoy the life of Leamington; this will just become a monstrous urban sprawl joining these 3 towns. Putting pressure on town centre car parks, infrastructures, schools & nurseries for which we already see some issues of capacities and most of all our only hospital in Warwick...I invite you to discover right now the joys of its A&E waiting room and imagine it with a further 12,000 new families depending on it.


I have got 2 children, 4 & 1 years old, and I do not want them to live in a huge town out of control, I want them to live in the charming town of Leamington/Withnash. I want them to enjoy the views of the fields in east Whitnash with currently cows and horses, instead of new hideous houses. I also do not want them to go to school with their bikes and having breathing issues because of higher pollution rate.

We all know that you are just interested into Housing investors, but please expand on brown field sites and other towns. This plan is just a plan to destroy the current community feeling of Leamington.
DO IT ELSEWHERE, NOT ONLY SOUTH LEAMINGTON!!!

I hope the anger of other people will be powerful enough to stop this complete non-sense. I object to any of these developments. The only one I can see can happen without too much disruption might be Woodside farm. We have seen the development plan and it seems OK. All the others are just complete madness, and I can't bear the idea of East side Withnash being developped.


If any of these plans are going ahead, conservative party will just loose all of our votes. And if I do not receive a comprehensive answer in the coming days, I'll use all my will to give you a headache for the coming days, weeks and months ahead of you.
