The proposed site would be an inappropriate choice and position in the village . The access point is just two doors along from The Village Shop and Post Office the most congested point in the village. There are always parked cars outside the shop and further along the street . Large delivery vehicles park at the shop and along the road just in front of the proposed access point. It is also opposite the main bus stop point in the village . It is also a request stop point going in the other direction There are frequent collisions along this point of the street and there have been two serious accidents outside 40 and 42 The Street in the past probably due to the parked cars and congestion . There is no capacity for widening the road due to existing residential properties. I believe such a development would significantly increase traffic safety is risks .
The increased number of residents would be put too much pressure on local resources.
