Respondent: Louise Jenkins

Representation Summary:

Having lived in Barford for two years, I agree with the current comments that the current infrastructure and the landscape will not allow for the development being proposed. The flood plains extend into much of the land that is being proposed on the Wramplingham border. The previous floods caused most of the fields to become very waterlogged for weeks afterwards.

The B1108 going into Norwich also cannot cope with the current amount of traffic so adding more houses and therefore cars to this road will cause further issues getting into Norwich past the hospital.
