Representation ID: 1404

Received: 06/02/2019

Respondent: Mrs Irene Baker

Representation Summary:

Too many homes and insufficient infrastructure to support them.

Full text:

The plan includes far too many new homes for Hunston. The infrastructure is not in place to support this level of development. Traffic which is already a major problem will become intolerable and the plans to mitigate this are completely inadequate.

If the plan is approved and with the land already seemingly available it can be expected that developers will build these new homes in the first few years of the plan not spread over the plan period. If this happens then the infrastructure such as roads, sewage treatment etc will not cope and any plans to improve infrastructure will lag way behind.
