Respondent: Mr Tony Roberts

Representation Summary:

I object to the annexation of Honingham to a "new Town" and in effect removing our identity whilst urbanising the village, bringing an increase in pollution, traffic, crime and road traffic collisions. The strain on local services and infrastructure including water dispersal would be intolerable.

I believe the proposed developments would destroy the quite and peaceful character of Honingham village. It would also be a strain on existing local services as well as utilities. Honingham village would in effect be annexed by a new town bringing with it a rise in crime, traffic, road accidents, pollution and destruction of an established village way of life which has been around for centuries. This development would along with the proposed duelling of the A47 to include a roundabout at the junction of Berrys Lane would turn the village into a rat run. This development is an affront to the people of Honingham.
