Any development should be within reasonable walking distance of the village facilities.
Schools, medical and dental facilities are already full to capacity.
Loddon and Chedgrave are congested with existing traffic, most of which exceeds any speed limits.
Parking is currently a problem for existing residents on the through roads in both villages which causes a problem for through traffic.
What does "at least" 20 homes relate to?
The objection is as follows:-
Why build at the furthest point from the village facilities, particularly the schools, shops, & medical centre when the biggest concern environmentally is traffic? This development will encourage more traffic in an already over used road system which was built originally for light vehicular traffic. Todays population seem not to use their legs and therefore as most homes today have at least 2 vehicles this will create further pollution and danger on the roads of this already over populated village. Speeding traffic heading to Langley School is not only a danger but a severe pollutant. No more is needed.
