Representation Summary:

This development is completely out of proportion to the area's needs - it is claimed this will bring in much needed employment, yet Lutterworth and the surrounding areas is one of the most highly-employed areas in the county. All it can bring in is extra traffic as the public transport doesn't exist, thus increasing congestion, air pollution and difficulty in travelling. It will also be in competition with considerably sized similar developments in and around Rugby, Corby and other surrounding areas.
