While the principle of housing is accepted as an alternative to industry the development should not be allowed to go ahead until the traffic problems encountered in Northampton Road, Springfield Street to St Mary's Rd have been resolved.
The Market Harborough Transport Strategy 2016 is just a wish list. Projects not designed and approved, any land required is yet to be acquired,finance and programme not available. Not sustainable to require just a contribution to academic proposals.
The Local Centre at Western Avenue should be enhanced by the Council
