Respondent: Taverham Road Action Group
Taverham Road Action Group comprises 40+ local people who are strongly opposed to the development of this site, as it involves moving the current settlement line and would set a precedent for further loss of the agricultural land that currently contributes to the community's pleasant, semi-rural environment. The resulting increase in traffic on this already busy and narrow road, which has very poor sight-lines and only one pavement for much of its length, would cause serious safety issues for both pedestrians and drivers, and the site's proximity to the Wensum would exacerbate current flooding problems and cause harm to wildlife.
