Received: 13/12/2018

Respondent: Mr John Fairey

Representation Summary:

1. Encroachment into the green belt' countryside.
2. Traffic effect on local narrow roads. ROAD SAFETY (even with 30mph limit extended) concern with residential vehicles entering/leaving.
3. No footpath/cycle paths linking schools in both directions
4. Impact upon local services - schools & GPs already over-stretched.
5. Ability of infrastructure to cope with another 60 houses. Water pressure already low. Surface drainage problems at the bottom of Brickle road will increase.
6. Huge number of houses built in the last few years - more than originally planned.
7. Loss of rural character, creating a residential arc around the south Norwich.

1. Encroachment into the rural 'green belt' countryside.
2. Traffic effect on local narrow roads - based upon average of 2 vehicles per household. ROAD SAFETY (even if there is an extended 30mph limit) will be a concern with residential vehicles entering/leaving the site. IF THE DEVELOPER PROPOSES USING AN ALTERNATIVE ACCESS OF BRICKLE Road itself then the volume of traffic and injury/collision risk will increase on Brickle road.
3. Absence of footpath or cycle paths linking this with schools in Lower Stoke and Framingham Earl.
4. Impact upon local services - schools & GP services which are already over-stretched.
5. Ability of local infrastructure to cope with another 60 houses. Water pressure is low in our area already. Surface drainage problems already occur at the bottom of Brickle road and this problem will increase.
6. We have already had a huge number of houses built in the last few years - more than originally planned.
7. We will loose our rural character, just creating a longer residential arc spreading around the south of Norwich.
