Village Housing Options and Settlement Boundaries

Representation ID: 61045

Received: 19/01/2014

Respondent: Mrs Jean Drew

Representation Summary:

I agree sites 2) and 3) are not suitable for development. Access to these sites would increase traffic on Mallory Road, where there is concern over speeding traffic, and cause further congestion at the dangerous junction of Mallory Road and the busy A452. They are remote from the village centre and local services. The sewage system would not cope with these development sites. Since houses upstream and to the west were added to the system, our garden in Mallory Road is often flooded with sewage in periods of heavy rain. Development would also exacerbate the flooding of Holt Avenue properties.
