Respondent: Action for Harleston
Harleston, is now, a medium sized market town. There has been substantial building in the area raising the number of residents markedly, beyond the infrastructures ability to cope.
However, the infrastructure has not kept pace with the increase in residents.
We have multiple problems relating to transport, drainage, schools, sewerage and employment opportunities, and medical facilities.
Each of the new estates seems to have been only considered in isolation. Nowhere, has anyone carried out a major Cumulative Impact study, so all the changes that have happened so far, can be evaluated before further building is undertaken
