No development should be allowed between the B1135 and Silfield Road South-East of the All because:
1 The area is prime farmland and as we leave the EU, farm land should be preserved for national food-security reasons.
2 The bottleneck under the railway, identified elsewhere in the GNLP, cannot cope with additional traffic; the current approved sites either side of Silfield Road to the North-West of the A11 will make access to Wymondham highly problematical without further pressure.
3 The roads between the B1135 and Silfield Road are narrow country lanes, all single track.
4 The hump back bridge at Bridge Road has a weight restriction, is already dangerous as regards poor visibility and is only wide enough for a single vehicle.
5 There are no sewage services, no mains gas and limited piped water supply in the area and installing such services would be destructive to amenity and the natural world.
6 The B1135 is known as an accident black spot and gravel extraction and its attendant traffic have already made the road more dangerous. Additional houses would further exacerbate this issue.
7 The area preserves considerable amenity, supports a wide range of wild life and preserves the inherent beauty ancient history of a man-made rural landscape which would be lost if piecemeal development of small fields were to be permitted.
8 Noise and light pollution are already considerable issues for the area and additional development could only result in further deterioration.
9 There is insufficient parking, schools and general amenities in Wymondham town centre to support a further increase in local population.
