Site Proposals document

Respondent: Paul Sanford

Representation Summary:

I support proportionate village growth to allow us to keep and enhance vital local services (school, bus, doctors etc), but not at this scale and not in this location. The volume of traffic moving through the village would have an adverse impact on safety and character. Verges are already becoming damaged through heavy traffic flow. On street parking already makes much of the street like a chicane. Development at the Bramerton end of the village makes more sense from a traffic perspective and is closer to main amenities.

Why damage an area of such beauty when other sites exist?
