Preferred Options for Sites

Representation ID: 64543

Received: 02/05/2014

Respondent: Amanda Norris

Representation Summary:

Both these sites are unsuitable for sustainable accommodation of any kind due to the following reasons:-

1. Lack of public access via foot paths to any amenities with walking distance.

2. By vehicle, Harbury is the nearest local village with any shops. There are no shops in Ufton. Harbury is already having to accept additional housing and the road network in Harbury is already restrictive, with narrow roads and very limited parking.

3. Likewise this will cause addition demand on local surgeries and schools, again causing additional traffic problems in the already traffic congested village of Harbury or equally Radford Semele.

4. The proposed site would be overlooked by Ufton so can't fail to have a visual impact on the surrounding area.

5. The Fosse Way and the Leamington to Southam road are already very busy, unlit roads with no foot paths. The additional traffic to and from a proposed site during the hours of darkness can only result in a much higher risk of accidents.

6. Being located in a wide open space any sound generated from the site can't fail to be heard from local residents and surrounded villages. This could be a cause of noise pollution.

Any developments planned in and around this area would be objected to due the same above issues.
