-Main access should be from Europa Way, Gallows Hill and Harbury Lane. Myton Crescent and Saumur Way are both residential streets Myton Crescent is only 16 ft wide. This would pose a danger.
-The majority of journeys from the new developments would be by car which would heavily overload the existing road system. The mitigations proposed is required before the traffic flows increase lest the works create congestion for the increasing traffic which will include construction traffic.
-Traffic will need to cross the Rivers Avon or Leam with its journey which will mean the river bridges will limit traffic progress.
-Banbury Road traffic having crossed the Avon at Castle Bridge then has to negotiate Warwick town centre with high levels of traffic and pollution.
-The roads coming north east and west from the Ford's Foundary roundabout cannot be widened.
-Route X18 along Myton Road is only hourly. This will need to be increased to major employment areas.
-The rail journeys from Warwick to London and Coventry and Birmingham are all acceptable although bus connections to the stations are not sufficiently good to avoid the use of cars to reach the stations.
-New development would require good cycle routes through to the town centres, railway stations and other key locations. Similarly good footpaths.
-Currently some pupils have to travel too far to get to school. Schools should be provided close to residential areas to avoid students needing to travel by car.
-The Southern Site is productive farmland with wild life, Its loss would leave the towns completely encircled by dense suburbs.
-Residential areas would require shops, community centres, doctors, surgeries and other facilities such as sports grounds, good drainage and permeable surfaces with ponds to avoid flash flooding and high quality water, gas, electricity and telephone.
