Not justified
- Magna park is not full currently. Why do we think any more warehousing is required?
- Is it just coincidence that the Developers outstanding applications are exactly the same as whats included in the HDC? I don't think so
- additional warehousing (IF required) would be better placed in around railway accessed warehousing, reducing air and light pollution
- the additional plan did not include this amount of additional warehousing and is a massive change to what I expected as a local resident
- we live in a virtually nil unemployment area. 10,000 low skilled, low paid and
often temporary jobs are not needed and so cannot justify development. People will have to travel into the area creating a lot of additional pressure on already overloaded roads. There is no rail link and bus routes are few and far between.
- the A5 is notorious as rammed with traffic in this area and this expansion would only lead to an increase. Local villages often act as rat runs for cars and HGV's alike; this would only get worse
-Rugby Gateway,DIRFT etc, offer competing warehousing in local proximity. They often experience recruitment difficulties and so workers would be needed from even greater distances, so more pollution and congestion
- few employees at Magna Park will be able to afford any properties in and around the area, so more commuting will occur
-where will Ullesthorpe village start and Magna park end; there is no mention a green space between them. Where is the protection for our village?
-loss of valuable agricultural land
- a massive threat to wildlife habitat
-local residents views should be respected
