Site Proposals document

Representation ID: 14188

Received: 17/03/2018

Respondent: Mr Ian Burke

Representation Summary:

There will be too much traffic in any direction to reach this site on narrow country roads, with no paths on The Street Taverham to protect pedestrians, thus forcing residents to use cars to leave their own properties.

Full text:

The road infrastructure to reach this site is already overloaded. The Street in Taverham is used for school traffic for Taverham High and Taverham Hall already and if coming from the other direction it would have to come through Ringland and up Ringland Road. Both these roads are already narrow and not wide enough in many places to accommodate 2 vehicles, particularly if they are larger vans or lorries. There are also no foot paths on The Street Taverham and its already a gamble to walk down the road. If the traffic comes in along Beech Avenue then it has to pass the High School which again is already busy.
It goes without saying that the Doctors and existing schools will be under immense pressure.
