-Increased traffic volumes and access problems are a recurring theme in comments from parishioners especially concerning the narrowness of Woodcote Lane and 'The Anchor' junction.
-Pedestrian access is very poor indeed requiring numerous crossings of the lane or side roads to reach the Warwick Road and create safety hazards for children to and from school at the south end of the village. The absence of footpaths on Woodcote Lane encourages the use of vehicles to access the school.
-Sites 2 and 3 (rest of the HQ site) includes relatively high density development. This is considered inappropriate in the context of the existing and surrounding properties raising questions regarding suitable access. A review of the proposed density is required.
