Leamington and Warwick are in danger of becoming like a city and any new road network put in to serve the new development will be of no help to the congestion in Leamington and Warwick.
The area of Warwick Gates/Whitnash has had enough development.

1. Would cause over-development of Whitnash, extending urban sprawl beyong reasonable means.
2. Water and road infrastructure cannot take the expansion. No investigation has been conducted.
3. Would cause further erosion of borders between Whitnash and Bishop's tachbrook creating an ugly urban sprawl from B.T. to North Leamington.
4. Insufficient availability of school places.
5. Loss of valuable agricultural land.
6. Development here would cause further traffic problems with people having to drive into Leamington/Kenilworth/Coventry to work.

Green fields south of Leamington should not be built on as area of restraint which seems to move when council want to develop land. Not option preferred by the public.

Developing south of Leamington will make a sprawling suburb. Heathcote and Bishops Tachbrook will be like living in city without city ammenities. Lack of community. People will still use cars and this will make Leamington and Warwick unpopular. People will go elsewhere. Warwick Castle will lose visitors.

Object to development of Whitnash and Warwick Gates area. Public services already stretched, roads regularly congested, extensive drainage problems. Looking at infrastrucure later is back to front approach. Unless provision of schools, medical services, traffic management etc addressed and necessary improvements included, will continue to actively object.

Object to 4,000 new homes in this area:
Woodside Farm development should only be permitted if there is no vehicular access from Harbury Lane owing to volume of traffic and brow of hill to east. Roads and public services are at saturation and close to breaking point at times. Cannot build here at this scale without massive investment in infrastructure.

The last of the greenfields surrounding Whitnash will have been built on over the last 40 years. During this time long standing residents have suffered from disruption due to building work and the preferred options will create further misery. Development on South Farm, the allotments, the Gas works Site and Warwick Gates has affected many due to the inadequate follow on of infrastructure and because of problems with flooding. How many dwellings will be built on the Woodside Farm site, if as rumoured it is 250 where would traffic enter and exit the site? Would a developer be required to provide access onto the Harbury Lane or would it be via Landor Road? Traffic on Landor Road, Ashford Road and access onto the Tachbrook Road is already a nightmare at peak times and needless to say this development will further add to the choked road systems.

Object to Land at Woodside Farm- Whitnash has had massive development in Warwick Gates turning it into amorphous mass.Latest proposals threaten greater loss of identity, community.
Land rejected for development by LP Inspector -what has changed? Land still the same - valuable agricultural land with no safe access that would not build up traffic and why phase 1? Even if Inspectors findings relevant only to 2011, they should not be disregarded. WDC has responsibility to to preserve green environment. Infrastructure already strained. Further increases in population would have further unpleasant impact. Roads are choked at certain times of day, schools are at bursting point, doctors and dentists already over-subscribed. No need for industrial units as employers are moving out not in. People will travel to work where their skills are needed

It is stated that the proposed build is scheduled in three phases to accomodate any changes that may occur in the future. If this is the case the area of restraint should be in Phase Three so that these areas may not have to be developed. I would ask that all areas that were designated as area of restraint immediately be put into Phase three.
We were also informed that Woodside Farm was not in the first proposal so how did it get included?

I object to building on Woodside Farm north of Harbury Lane for the following reasons.
1. Irreversible destruction of the countryside.
2. The identity of Whitnash will be destroyed.
3. Traffic levels are already excessive and the impact of this development appears to have not been properly assesed.
4. Demand on water, sewage, phone and broadband.

Not only detrimental to residents of Bishops Tachbrook, Whitnash and Warwick Gates, but also to residents of Warwick and Leamington Spa
Infrastructure:already inadequate
Water supply: poor pressure in Bishops Tachbrook after Warwick Gates built so Severn Trent had to build new pumping station.
Sewers: inadequate for village. Sewage flows into fardens onto Oakley Wood Road when torrential rain falls occur
Surface Drainage: flooding occurs on Oakley Wood Road where is crosses Tach Brook - more houses will increase problem along Tach Brook valley
Roads:
Congestion at peak times will worsen as will pollution. Traffic will increase through Bishops Tachbrook adding to speeding problems
Education: Not enough primary school places now. If more children have to travel to school, traffic will increase. Children at school outside area decreases social development of community.
Services: Police and doctors stretched now and will come under more pressure. Emergency vehicles will have to contend with congested bridges across rivers in Leamington and Warwick
Green Belt Land: In direct contradiction to Govt. policy to make Britain self sufficient in food production
Vision: Loss of village identity would contradict vision
Employment: Will be few jobs for new residents. Why build on green belt land for people to travel elsewhere to work?
Do not appear to have taken account of public opinion on options consultation when majority chose south of Coventry.
Additional housing could be located in villages, where needed.
Look for brown field sites

Anti-social behaviour results from large estates of houses. Infrastructure is not in place to deal with development. Traffic problems, especially with getting to Warwick hospital and ambulances will take longer through extra traffic. Told not to increase flood risk by not concreting over gardens.
Will need land to grow our own food in future.
Area around Harbury Lane easy target but it will ruin attractive place to live. Heritage sites of Warwick and Leamington should not be allowed to become like Coventry, Rugby and suburbs of Birmingham
