Site Proposals document

Representation ID: 13992

Received: 21/03/2018

Respondent: Mrs Zoe Barr

Representation Summary:

Hawkes Lane is unsuitable for increased traffic flow. Applicant may be able to widen just at their field - but does not solve the problem further down the single track lane. Highways have already objected to site at the Nurseries on Hawkes Lane as road not suitable (ref 2017/2807).

Hawkes Lane often experiences flooding - this would be exacerbated by urbanisation of this field.

Site is in view of Grade II listed Mergate Farm and Grade II* listed Mergate Hall. 2016/0713 was rejected to protect these heritage assets.
