Representation Summary:

I live here in Coltishall and value the lovely village feel that still has. What a shame it would be to over crowd this village with even more buildings, and vehicles, thereby creating more traffic issues, and also to the point of overcrowding the local amenities.

Safety issues with pedestrians including children crossing the roads already , More cars and service vehicles etc, will make the situation even worse!
The children from the Ling Way estate will have to cross the road at the junction to the new estate , whereas at the moment they have a continuous footpath to the school. The school is at full capacity at the moment, so new residents will over crowd it, the doctors at the moment are doing well but again all the new residents will over crowd the surgery making it more difficult on the staff , doctors and patients, not being able to get appointments.
The roads around that proposed development and in the village as a whole are not designed for the traffic as it is at the moment , let alone MORE traffic using the roads. They are dangerous as it is.
Crossing the B1150 North Walsham road from the Ling Way estate is already unsafe and near misses have already happened there. There are already major speeding issues in that area. Surely this new proposed building plan will only go to make matters even worse.
