Respondent: Mr Stephen Cash
(Changed from object to support as respondent is actually supporting the categorisation of the site as unreasonable in the GNLP)
We are supporting the planning officers decision to deem this site unreasonable. Strumpshaw has no infrastructure for further residential development, no school, no shops therefore increased housing will mean more polluting car journeys, especially with the limited bus service. The roads to access Norwich are either through Brundall which is already overburdened with traffic or up Hemblington Rd which is single carriageway with a dangerous bend, Mill lane is too narrow for a car and bicycle to pass and is totally unsuitable for further accessing traffic. The proposed development will materially diminish the current landscape.
