The proposed development would lead to disruption of a wildlife corridor, including the home of barn owls, which have occupied the same spot for over 60 years. Families of ducks also use the area, and because of the cul-de-sacs, cars tend to travel up and down the road slowly. If there was a through road, the risks to the ducks, and to road users, would increase.
It would also lead to significant safety concerns, as at present St Pauls RIse is a cul-de-sac, allowing children from a number of families to play/ride bikes in relative safety. The development, with a through road, would end this, leading to significant risk of road traffic accidents involving children.
