Harborough Local Plan 2011-2031, Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 5769

Received: 29/10/2017

Respondent: Claybrooke Parva Parish Council

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

Assuming a lot of the increased traffic travelling to and from the extended Magna Park will use the A5 24 hours a day I cannot envisage how this proviso is possible to achieve. As an example I stood on the road both in Claybrooke Parva and Claybrooke Magna (about a mile away from the A5) at just befopre midnight and the road traffic noise is clearly audible already before any increase in traffic is experienced. One can only presume air pollution will increase as a result also.

How can warehousing of that scale not have and unacceptable landscape impact?
