Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Mr Greg Shaw

Representation Summary:

With the current roads surrounding Cottingley, which are at the breaking point, how are we supposed to handle additional 150 homes? Most homes have at least two cars per household; that is an additional 300 cars added to the traffic. With overwelled schools, GP surgeries, dentist, where is the plan for the additional support. At the same time, they are stating that the area has all the amenities needed, not how they will cope with an influx of people! Secondly, the environment impact of removing fields that help prevent flooding to the area; as building more homes has increased, so has local flooding. What measures are in place that does not pass the problem on downriver?
