Harborough Local Plan 2011-2031, Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 5676

Received: 28/10/2017

Respondent: Mr Anthony Brookes

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

Totally inadequate road provision. The A426 is regularly gridlocked from the M6 to the A5 and A5 to the Lutterworth Roudabout. In addition 3000 lorries pass through the centre of Luterworth every day. Polution is extremely high and will rise. For the expansion to be granted, there must be dual carraige provision provided BEFORE the expansion. This may be other agencies not involved with the Local plan, but the omission is a major failing of this plan. It cannot be sound without improvements to road infrastructure
