•Existing traffic bottleneck on Langley Lane at school times. Additional homes and traffic will mean travelling anywhere will become impossible.
•Construction vehicles accessing the site will also cause further issues as parts of the road are not very wide making it difficult to manoeuver large vehicles.
•Public transport is limited and 40 homes will generate more cars and more pollution.
•Removing this greenspace and building new homes here will increase the likelihood and frequency of flooding downstream. Gill Beck regularly bursts its banks affecting homes and businesses down the hill.
•New development would detract from the beautiful scenery and Tong Park which is used for walking.
•The rate of building on greenspaces is increasing rapidly.
•Brown belt areas or old disused buildings which could be demolished hould be repurposed to protect the valuable countryside.
