Representation ID: 61616

Received: 29/01/2014

Respondent: Ms D Bassett

Representation Summary:

-New housing in Burton Green would have a huge impact on the infrastructure.
-Cromwell Lane is already subject to traffic congestion which would be worsened by building 75 houses. Such congestion would take away the village environment, which attracts people to live in the village.

I would prefer not to have any new housing in Burton Green as it will have a huge impact on the infrastructure e.g roads. Cromwell Lane already takes a huge amount of traffic and building 75 houses will create circa 150 further vehicles (based on two cars per household) using Cromwell Lane. Also this will take away the village environment, which is why I came to live here!

SUPPORT

If I have to choose one it would be 1. Burrow Hill Nursery - Preferred option by Council. This will not have such a significant landscape impact and keep the ribbon development as is.
