Respondent: Mr Paul Briddon

Representation Summary:

This development is totally inappropriate. As there are currently around 400 dwellings in the village a development such as this would destroy the character of the village forever. The local roads are incapable of dealing with levels of traffic that would be generated. Traffic would cut into the A146 rather than queue at the Southern bypass traffic lights. The doctors surgery is already overstretched. The village school would need funding for expansion. Do we need to destroy our rural villages to meet housing need when development closer to Norwich, increased City housing density and smaller rural schemes would be better?
