I am writing to object to the development of a further 125 homes in Loxwood for the following reasons:

1. Traffic and transport - we do not have any appropriate form of public transport to support this new influx of housing with only one bus a day to Guildford, I cannot imagine how many more cars will be on the road through the village. The road is already strained. The A281 is under immense pressure also.

2. Child Safety - I have to cross the main road through the village four times a day on a school run to the Pre-School and Primary School and the road is exceptionally dangerous. The parked cars mean that it is impossible to see what is coming, sometimes until you are almost half way across. There are no considerations for my elderly neighbours making the same crossing to the doctor's surgery. This makes me extremely anxious and this is an accident waiting to happen. More cars on the road mean that my children will never feel safe to make that big decision for themselves of when to cross the road.

3. Pre-School - The Pre-School is already over-subscribed. It can take 17 children in its small building and there is already a waiting list for the next two school years. The alternative provisions are in Ifold, Rudgwick, Dunsfold and Cranleigh, all adding to traffic on the road through the village.

4. Primary School - The Primary School is seriously under-funded and more children just means additional pressure and demand on already scant resources.

5. Antler Homes - Antler Homes have not yet sold all of their 43 homes which were first up for sale almost 2 years ago. There just is not the demand for housing in this village.

6. Sewage - Southern Water has said that Loxwood sewage insfrastructure has no more capacity and there are no plans to update this infrastructure. The use of sewage holding tanks will mean yet more traffic on our unsuitable roads.

Please ensure our voice is heard as villagers. I speak for not only myself, but also for concerned neighbours and in particular parents of small children.
