Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Representation ID: 20153

Received: 28/02/2020

Respondent: Mr Andrew Turner

Representation Summary:

The main issue with this proposal concerns village infrastructure. The main access road into the village - Blofield Road - is a country lane. I don’t believe it would cope with the inevitable increase in traffic. There have already been fatal accidents in the area. Also with the increase in households, there must be a medical practice established in Lingwood to ease the burden on surrounding practices. Finally the local primary school will face an increase in numbers that I’m not sure it can sustain.
