Respondent: Mr Colin Dean

Representation Summary:

I object on the basis that the village infrastructure is insufficient and that road access is not as good as implied. Additionally, I object on the basis this site is being used to access other proposed sites which will fundamentally change the character of the village.

Full text:

Village infrastructure makes the village unsuitable for further development. The school and medical practice already operate at full capacity and with future development already planned in the village this problem will only become worse.

I am disconcerted to read that access to this site is regarded as having good road visibility. The site is located very close to a narrow stretch of road where LGVs and HGVs must travel down the middle of the road and is already a site of many near misses for traffic collisions. Adding an additional junction to this area will exacerbate the existing problems.

The proposal of this site is clearly to create additional access to the other sites already proposed. This large scale development of the village will seriously adversely impact the character of a Broads village and place an enormous strain on the infrastructure.
