Representation Summary:

My objections .. we already have a large number of new houses, but without any increase in provision of services. the schools and health provision are at capacity. the fabric of our lanes and roads, used as rat runs, is destroyed and speeding traffic puts walkers, children trying to get to school, cyclists and horse riders in mortal danger

I strongly object to further development outside the present parish boundaries. In particular GLP2111, GLP0494, GLP0202,GLP0197 and GLP2091. our local area has had many new properties, all of which are putting a huge impact on local services. The local schools and health provision, are at capacity, and our lanes are dangerous rat runs. Chandler road, formerly a single track lane has been overwhelmed with traffic and is now two way , with the verges destroyed. Children, horse riders, cyclists and walkers ( it is on Boudicca's Way) are in constant danger from traffic trying to maintain the national speed limit of 60 mph! We have a much reduced bus service, again adding to the need for car usage, and there is no safe footway or cycle way from Stoke Holy Cross to Upper Stoke and Poringland resulting in many children having to be taken to school by car. We are at capacity.
