•Cumulative impact of traffic from SH4/5/6 would put the road system under so much pressure traffic jams would be continual. There would need to be significant improvement to infrastructure.
•Serious flooding in 2015. Proposed plan would increase the likelihood of flooding with little effectively being done to mitigate the impact. Land currently acts as a flood barrier.
•Acknowledged that there are a number of small waterbodies. This plus surface water already contributes to flooding which will be increased with the development of SH4/5/6.
•Site is Green Belt. The NPPF indicates that the aim of Green Belts is to prevent urban sprawl and the essential characteristics are their openness and permanence. The proposals for SH4/5/6 are contrary to this.
