Respondent: Mr James Morgan

Representation Summary:

Ridiculously huge proposal in an area that would effectively double the size of Roydon village, without adding to the already much needed infrastructure upgrade. What about schools, doctors, police numbers to cope? What about the already congested Victoria road? A poorly planned proposal and we respectfully object.

Full text:

The village of Roydon does not have the infrastructure for such a large proposal. Nor does Diss. Victoria road already suffers from consistent traffic congestion and pollution. The local doctors, schools and police are not equipped for this size proposal- just to name a few!! I moved to Roydon to live rural and a development such as this would force us out of the area. Diss already has a large build development underway, close to the train station, it cannot cope with anymore without serious investment in infrastructure. To suggest just a housing development be built is just short sighted and poor planning. The 1066 is also heavily used with HGV's and to propose this new development exit onto shelfanger road to further congest the town centre and Victoria road would not be viable as it would increase an already congested area. My family and I respectfully object to this huge proposal.
