Respondent: Mel Morgan-Davis

Representation Summary:

Moor Lane has seen detrimental impact from
additional housebuilding in recent years.
Theoretically a 20 mph zone, speed limits are broken by cars travelling to the top of the road, children are used to playing in what was previously a quiet road, the current situation is an accident waiting to happen.
Impact of increased traffic flow
Impact on flow through the village on Main Street and Bolton Road.

Proposal AD5/H, proves that there is a complete and utter disregard for traffic flow, children's safety (it's a narrow much-used walkway for children attending school) and environmental/wildlife issues.
Permitted parking (reasonably required by residents) create bottlenecks and traffic is brought to a standstill.
