Representation ID: 21819

Received: 12/03/2020

Respondent: Barford Parish Council

Representation Summary:

• Barford and Wramplingham Parish Council consider that the opaque policy on village cluster sites is inconsistent with the Climate Change statement in Table 5: “reduce the need to travel, particularly by private car;”. • Note There is no bus service for Wramplingham, and there are only intermittent services through Barford, serving the bus stops shown near the Village Hall. One is only weekly. All are subsidised and vulnerable to cost cutting by NCC. The hourly day-time service along the B1108 is also a subsided route. There are no bus services in the evening, nor connecting the two villages to their designated GP surgery in Hethersett.
• It is difficult to understand how the drive to build more houses rectifies the current situation, let alone providing services for new houses
