Hard to verify actual housing needs because of constantly changing demographics. Planning should not be subject to Central Government predictions, but based on local need and knowledge.

No assessment made of infrastructure requirements - impact on overfull roads, provision of water and sewerage treatment works, medical/hospital and schooling requirements, flood risk. Council should insist on extension of at least six months to consultation period during which time infrastructure reports should be commissioned.

No account taken of infrastructure and provision of offices and factories for employment.
Further land will be needed for schools, sports fields and other leisure facilities, shops, surgeries, churches, car parking (inc. a park and ride scheme to replace the one at Europa Way). Also utilities, sewage and flood prevention from greatly increased urban footprint. What consultation has taken place with Severn Trent etc?
No travel impact survey undertaken - number of new vehicles likely, to further detriment of air quality.

Utilities, services - police, doctors, dentists etc all overstretched now. Hospitals only accessible via bridges over Avon and fear for emergency cases reaching assistance.
Huge increase in traffic will result in pollution and air quality problems in Warwick and Leamington town centres. At peak times, traffic gridlocked along roads to M40.
Reduced employment since demise of AP, Fords, IBM and work not available for incomers. People commute elsewhere to work, especially at Warwick Gates.
Remaining agricultural land needed to feed future generations.
Why decision not to build new settlement below A46/J15 interchange where direct road links available.

Infrastructure. Traffic already queuing trying to exit Birches Lane to St John's Island - can only get worse.
A452 to Leamington one of the busiest single carriageway roads in Warwickshire - plans abandoned to 'dual' it.
Railway cuts through Kenilworth - access to town centre or from town centre to Warwick and Birmingham must find way over line. Results in lots of traffic using bridges.

There has been insufficient consideration of infrastructure requirements and the existing infrastructure could be used more effectively if new development was spread more evenly throughout the district. The plans need to be re-considered.

No provision for new roads and infrastructure - how would people feed onto road system. Warwick bridge cannot take more and Myton Road is solid.
Where would children go to school? Where is extra health provision? Where will people find work? or will people commute, making area dormitory town without sense of community or soul?

No impact plan commissioned.
No consideration given to:
Schools, children from same families go to different schools typically opposing travel/traffic strategy
Police - crime increased since Warwick Gates developed
Dentists
Doctors
Road access - congestion. Bridge to Warwick and Leamington bottlenecks, M40 backs up to Longbridge Island in morning.
Services/utilities - already stretched to limit
Leisure facilities - built to placate residents when Warwick Gates built but are poorly utilised, inaccessible, incomplete
Flora and fauna - currently woodpeckers, muntjacks, foxes and many wild birds which would be compromised if Woodsite Farm site was developed.

Concerned area around Europa Way impact on traffic, increase in flood risk on land currently acts as soakaway and is rich habitat for wildlife.
Traffic - south of Warwick already at saturation with Myton Road virtually impassable at peak times. No capacity for more cars. Detrimental to residents and tourism.
Increased risk of flooding - at present run off is slowed by pasture and crops. Development results in flooding of houses.
Loss of habitat - impact on woodpeckers, buzzards, bats, foxes, deer, newts and hedgehogs.
Impact on infrastructure - strain on local services; GP surgeries, hospital, drainage, sewerage and public transport.
Local school capacity - schools oversubscribed. Problems arose when Warwick Gates developed without new school..

Traffic will increase causing problems on already overcrowded routes. Quality of life in rural areas will deteriorate with no compensating benefits for local people.
Infrastructure - Already stretched due in part to lack of facilities at Warwick Gates. No assurances about new resources: police, medical, schools, shops, leisure facilities, parks, will be provided - likley to be woefully inadequate.

Roads already congested and often approach gridlock if there is an accident. Concerns about effect on some historic buildings from vibrations caused by heavy traffic. Most new households would have at least one car - how will traffic keep moving? What plans for dealing with increased pollution and deterioration in air quality in towns and increased deterioration in road surfaces.
Bishops Tachbrook is already used as rat run by commuters avoiding Europa Way - particularly dangerous to school children. What measures proposed to prevent this and reduce risk to villagers.
Rivers form physical obstacles to traffic movement. Increase in population south of river, remote from emergency services, seems unwise.
