Proposed entry (Golden View Drive) is totally unsuitable for increased traffic use and a private (unadopted) cul-de-sac. Entrance/exit from Golden View Drive via Thwaites Brow Road has many hazards including parked cars. It is prone to speeding and use as short cut to bypass the town centre. Potential to be an accident blackspot.

If KY18/H goes ahead, this would potentially increase traffic using Thwaites Brow Road to use the “Twines” to access the bypass.

Use of greenbelt land when brownfield sites are available.

Effect on wildlife.

Sewerage/drainage system – which is already a problem at times in Lee Court.

Pollution due to additional traffic.

Local amenities such as Doctors and Schools are already near to over-subscription.

Golden View Drive is not suitable for heavy construction vehicles and equipment, which are also going to contribute to the hazardous conditions to both pedestrians and motorists on Thwaites Brow Road.
