Accessibly in and out of the village is currently poor. The traffic through Blofield road will be significantly increased after closing the exit onto the A47 when the road is duelled (Church Road through to Lingwood Road then A47). Having more cars flow out onto Blofield road will massively impact traffic in Lingwood. Both roads opposite this site, Church Road and Blofield Road are dangerous single lane roads with limited spaces for passing. Being a rural village the roads are also used a lot by farmers. The spaces on the lanes can only fit two cars pulling in and a tractor down these lanes means cars would have to reverse down the road to allow tractors to pass which is an obvious danger.
The increased housing numbers in and around Lingwood are too large for the village infrastructure. Lingwood has no doctors surgery and the local medical services are already strained. The local dentists are already not taking on new patients.
The School will be full in the next few years. It is currently 74% full and can only accommodate a small increase of children. There is limited off road parking. The sewers often flood. The sewer at the bottom of Neves close has severely flooded twice within the last year.
It is the edge of the village and the field and countryside is what separates it from the next village.
