Significant increase on traffic volumes.

Development of 40 houses will generate not only approximately 80 more cars, but also on-line delivery vans, refuse collection trucks, trade vehicles etc

Heights Lane is a narrow country lane with no pavements.

It is dangerous for many walkers, cyclists and horse riders, using the Lane, majority of car drivers appear to be oblivious to the dangers and drive at inappropriate speeds.

Traffic through the village has increased dramatically in recent years, more drivers use the roads to avoid major routes.

The roundabout at the top of Park Road has already to be approached with caution. Traffic approaching the roundabout from Park Road is not visible from Warren Lane until they are on the roundabout. Traffic approaching from Heights Lane is not visible to those approaching the roundabout from Otley Road.
Accidents just waiting to happen!

The potential for additional levels of pollution, which all this additional traffic will create should be a huge consideration.
