Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Representation ID: 1406

Received: 06/02/2019

Respondent: Mrs Georgina Briffa

Representation Summary:

Object to 250 dwellings in Fishbourne due to:
Lack of resources (school oversubscribed, no local shop meaning more cars needed with every new build)
Poor quality roads, no street lighting: You cannot pass 2 cars down much of Blackboy Lane and many potholes. Recent newbuilds in Blackboy Lane caused major problems. Extremely dangerous junction crossroads at Clay Lane/Salthill Road - a fatality waiting to happen. Dangerous busy Fishbourne roundabout with 5 exits!
Fishbourne has a major flooding problem already.
Morally wrong to build on good quality farm land, (should be protected for future generations)when there is poorer quality land available.
