Good principles in regards to cycling but fails to give priority to cycling and pedestrians over cars - it still accommodates cycling and pedestrians rather than designing on their behalf.

It is essential that the approach to the spine road is not watered down. The road could be potentially dangerous for non car users so must be made safe - including appropriate crossing points.

The mention of connections to wider cycle routes are not sufficiently explained or detailed and are essentially meaningless. If this is not to become a well intentioned white elephant these plans need to be detailed now.

a) Chapter 9, p151 - Traffic problems likely by having two access points. At peak times the flow of traffic past the indicated Leamington Rd junction is extremely heavy and the consequence of constructing a further traffic inflow at this point would add to the burden that drivers have to face during the weekday commute. Far better would be to use solely, the junction directly from the A46 roundabout, through the industrial sector and onto the spine road. Two junctions are unnecessary when one will suffice, remove the spine road junction onto the main Leamington bound main road.

a) Concern about access from Thickthorn Close to the site at Thickthorn. The close must remain a close because it's not designed for through traffic
b) Concern about any vehicular access off Thickthorn Close. The properties have a distinct character brought about by their seclusion and single access off Birches Lane solely to the properties
c) The housing that is close to the bungalows of Thickthorn Close should be in keeping, i.e. be bungalows not 3-4 bed houses

a) The road system cannot take all this traffic. Roads with any slowing of traffic will be a complete failure. The development is too much for this side of Kenilworth and will cause rat runs
b) Drainage issues
c) Air pollution will be a major problem from A46/development traffic
d) HS2 and this development will be a nightmare during construction and then once built with new school traffic to the relocated school

a) Concern about volume of traffic. Particularly with other new developments taking place (e.g. Kings Hill).
b) People will always use their cars as the first choice of transport
c) There is not an efficient public transport system so most people will not use the bus
d) Proper cycle paths should be in place for public safety prior to any new build

a) Very disappointed that the proposed spine road is now not included in the plans. Why has this been removed? It is going to have a tremendous impact on existing roads where junctions need to be created
b) Glasshouse Lane and Birches Lane are entirely unsuitable for such a high volume of traffic. None of the existing roads, in particular Leyes Lane, are capable of carrying greater volumes of traffic & are totally unsuitable for roundabouts/traffic lights

a) The traffic in Birches Lane has got worse year on year for 40 years especially early mornings on St Johns junction. It is therefore very important that the Council do not lose the chance to build a relief or spine road from Thickthorn roundabout to Dalehouse Lane this will help take some of the traffic from St John island which will only increase more with the planned 1400 new homes. If the housing and employment units are built without a link road then there will be no way of building one in the future.

a) The Council have always held strong on the view that Thickthorn Close is not a suitable access point due to it being a narrow road. It is clear that it is now a main access point for the new estate. There was a commitment that the amenity of residents in Thickthorn would not be impacted and this clearly does impact.

a) Will have a significant and detrimental impact upon existing residents along Birches Lane, Glasshouse Lane and certainly the spur roads of Farmer Ward, Windy Arbour, Moseley Rd, Dencer Drive and Leyes Lane. The impact of so many vehicles suddenly utilising this piece of road, both in rush hour and school runs will lead to deterioration of quality of life, ability to freely access and traverse roads adjacent to the immediate and surrounding properties.
b) The spine road must continue through the entire new development from the A452 and into lower Crewe Lane.

a) Object to the access on Thickthorn Close. The close is unsuitable to take the type of traffic, well intentioned how it seems will only act in future as a main entrance. The primary route is very close to the island junction that carries fast moving traffic.

a) Concerned the A452/A46 roundabout already gets very busy at rush hour with long queues. Another 1000 homes are likely to make this junction even busier. Please carefully consider this to minimise the impact.

a) Taking into account the sheer devastation that will be made to the surrounding area, especially the local wildlife, will I ever hear our owl again?
b) I am ready to sacrifice even Rocky Lane, the main haunt of dog walkers, for the spine road to continue through the new estate. How can it be considered sensible to keep it when all the traffic problems will be considerable and Glasshouse Lane, a quiet road will become the North Circular of the Town.
