Building on this site would add to the already existing traffic congestion. There is only one exit road from Cottingley, Manor Road, which at peak times is already extremely busy, extra traffic from 155 houses would add to the pollution and be hazardous to children going to the two schools. Extra traffic on March Cote Lane would cause hazards as it already has cars parked on the road as there no garages on one side and the disruption of heavy vehicles during building would be horrendous. Also it would cause difficulties for emergency vehicles..
Children would have to travel further to school, and at primary age this is not acceptable.
As there is only one doctors practice, people would have difficulty getting appointments.
Flooding is also a great concern.
Wild life would also suffer at the loss of this greenbelt.
