Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Representation ID: 20912

Received: 13/03/2020

Respondent: Mr Robert Grindrod

Representation Summary:

This greenfield site was outside the settlement limit and approved in the face of widespread local opposition. No plausible plan for managing construction traffic or resident traffic has ever been presented. Site parking will also overwhelm local residents. The road network is already dangerous with blind junctions at one end, a humpback bridge in the middle and one of the most dangerous junctions in Norfolk onto the B1150. Village services cannot cope with the massive growth of Coltishall (50+ houses OUTSIDE Local Plan in 15 years with more to come). Broadland's own housing data shows no need for this development.
