The quality of the local roads are poor at best, no safe walking or cycling possible. No one obeys the speed limits in and out of the village. Regularly observe the school mums entering the village at speed whilst appearing to be on the phone, at least not looking in the direction of travel!
The proposed entry is clearly flawed as it is at a pinch point in the road which when built would create issues with potentially 3 points of entry to the junction from 3 or more vehicle’s creating congestion at this point in the road. No one can reverse!
As to the statement of water drainage being to the 100 year flood standard this is also not sufficient as the current Lister Way houses are built on bedrock with very little drainage happening and I’m sure this is a factor in the current soak away at Laburnum Way being near to bursting its banks every time we have a downpour.
Any water test needs to be carried out during the worst weather to see the true drainage levels that are achieved rather than in the middle of the summer months when the ground soak and retention is at its highest.
Would any thought be given to solar inclusion, good bin and refuse storage (currently in any wind bins are seen travelling around the village with no one seeming to care), and the potential damage that would be done to the wildlife that is currently seen now.
