Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Representation ID: 757

Received: 01/02/2019

Respondent: Mrs Stephanie Carn

Representation Summary:

This area is so near the AONB it should be left alone and not made part of the urban area. A manged country park will be no substitute for an area that is now fairly inaccessible, crossed by one public footpath, and no preserved from pressures from dog walkers etc.

No link road should be built. New roads generate new traffic and are not sustainable. The country's climate change commitments should prevent new road building, rather than promote it.
Mitigation proposals are not specified and can't compensate for damage to the AONB, the SSI and Ramsar sites nearby.
