Harborough Local Plan 2011-2031, Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 6031

Received: 01/11/2017

Respondent: Mr Richard Lockley

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

I strongly object to this proposal.

The resulting increase in traffic volume on the A5 would be unsustainable.

The A5 is already heavily congested particularly at peak times. Queues are the norm.

The increase in both air and light pollution is not acceptable.

The loss of vast areas of open countryside and farmland with the resulting loss of wild life
habitat cannot be tolerated.

In reality such developments create only relatively low numbers of poor quality jobs.

The negatives far outweigh any positive gains.
