Village Housing Options and Settlement Boundaries

Representation ID: 60673

Received: 08/01/2014

Respondent: Mr Mark Dickenson

Representation Summary:

I support the discounting of Option 4 from the Village Housing Options. It would have led to increased traffic flow along narrow congested roads (School Lane and Lewis Road) and would have resulted in more accidents along these roads (especially with the congestion outside the school at drop-off pick up times), more accidents at the junction to Radford Road and emergency vehicles would have been unable to access the site.

Building on Option 4 would have also led to an increased risk of flooding along roads to the South of Option 4 which have been flooded in recent history.
