I would like to make the following comments regarding the Jarrolds site GNLP2173 consultation; I have been unable to comment on line successfully:

I would like to see more leisure activities for the community to use.

There is a restriction in place on Heath Crescent to reduce traffic as this was previously causing infrastructure problems. To increase the volume of traffic and heavy building equipment could cause costly and potentially irreparable damage in the area.

The volume of housing planned would increase the volume of traffic in the immediate area which would cause a bottleneck to a small housing estate.

Many properties nowadays have at least 2 cars per household; there would be limited space for these to park and potentially many would park outside properties in the surrounding residential roads.

There are already sport pitches on this site which were once used; these could easily be adapted further to allow more and better sporting facilities.

There is potential for a cycle path/ pedestrian path around the circumference of the site, which would allow safe cycling in the area as Hellesdon is short of safe cycling routes.

This would also provide a better pedestrian leisure walking option rather than roads in the local area.

The current facilities could be adapted to create a coffee shop/ leisure area for local residents to use while walking, cycling or using other facilities.

A safe place for teenagers/ young people to spend time and let of steam without getting into trouble; BMX bike/ graffiti wall

Different sporting / other facilities to enable different family members to participate while at the same location.

There is a growing need for leisure spaces to facilitate and encourage wellbeing of individuals in our community, adapting the space to facilitate leisure facilities and quiet spaces is essential to this end.
