Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Representation ID: 20508

Received: 08/03/2020

Respondent: Mr Kevin Howlett

Representation Summary:

Strumpshaw is a small village with no facilities, small roads and highly unsuitable for any larger scale development.
Access to shops, employment, schools etc. will be by car, increasing reliance on a transport mode inconsistent with sustainability plans and environmental aims.
Any road serving the site will be accessed by smaller roads that are unsuitable for increased traffic flow.
Following recent developments there is no need for further housing and there are much more preferable locations for development to take place. This proposal will destroy the existing character of the area.
