Respondent: Emma O'Kelly

Representation Summary:

I object strongly to the development of areas E and F of this plan. This area is a haven for a diverse range of species including otters, kingfishers, cuckoos and humans.

There is increasing research on the physical and mental health benefits of access to green spaces. These areas are extremely well used by those living in the surrounding areas; access to this green space is an important resource for individuals and families.

There is already considerable traffic on Bluebell Road, with long tailbacks at the Fiveways Roundabout and Eaton, additional development of the Strawberry Fields site would exacerbate this.
