Whilst it is appreciated that some development must take place, the locations the proposed developments and the excessive use of Green Belt land make the preferred allocations impossible to support. Some of these sites individually are perfectly reasonable but when taking into account how compact they are as a whole the impacts on highways alone, particularly the A644, is enough to warrant an objection. Not only will they cause serious congestion, which itself will have a significant environmental and health impact, there is a lack of safety measures on the A644 to get residents safely onto the High Street.
Queensbury has seen a significant number of houses built since the late 1980's with the then new Naseby Rise Development at Scarlet Heights and progressing to numerous other quite large development sites. During the associated time period there has been with very little infrastructure to support the housing / population growth.
