Draft Greater Norwich Local Plan – Part 1 The Strategy

Representation ID: 19834

Received: 03/02/2020

Respondent: Miss Philippa Thomas

Representation Summary:

The current provision of Doctor's surgeries and schools in the Taverham/Drayton area is already overstretched. Before more housing is built, which would stretch services even further, I would like to see a larger health centre (like the one at Hoveton and Wroxham) up and running and larger school premises, thereby providing better services for the existing population before we consider introducing more housing. Our priority should be services to provide for the current community not adding more stress to the overstretched services.
