10% more housing is rather a large increase. Where are extra school and GP places going to be found? Access to the site is close to Cottingley Primary, goes over a narrow bridge taking one lane of traffic and is used by families attending the school - large lorries carrying resources while building takes place- extremely dangerous; increased traffic when houses are built - extremely dangerous. Cottingley Cliffe Road will also have increased heavy traffic. This road is extremely dangerous to walk children to and from school at present as the pavement narrows, how are you going to protect them once building is underway? Drainage. At present, when it rains, water streams down the drives of the houses on March Cote Lane. Building on the land behind will only make this worse. Safety, drainage, increased population, increased traffic and increased pressure on local facilities. Think again.
