Representation ID: 18443

Received: 11/12/2018

Respondent: Mrs Jean D Leigh

Representation Summary:

I would like to formally put on record my objections to the proposed mixed development in Wortwell. Firstly there is no infrastructure for a further 412 houses.
Secondly the transport links are virtually non-existant and parking at a premium. The speed with which vehicles travel a long like High road is unacceptable and positively dangerous. I take my life in my hands in trying to exit my drive way in the car as cars and lorries come round the blind bend at anything up to 50mph. Entering the drive is just as dangerous and with the increased amount of traffic that would ensue would make entering and exiting nigh on impossible.
Thirdly my late husband I have experience the insidious expansion of a small village in Essex to the size of a small town. We finally moved to Wortwell because of the expansion and I want to remain in the village and to have to move again due to the above unacceptable plan.

Finally the Waveney Valley is a beautiful area and should remain so preserving also the wonderful wildlife we have here.
