The local plan does not provide any solution to a reduction in the use of motor vehicles. The lack of a major change to the A road infrastructure around Lutterworth will condemn the town to a local ghetto devoid of any meaningful facilities which will increase the need for people to use private transport to travel greater distances to shop and secure other services. There is no vision to develop an environmental light railway/tram system to compete with existing forms of polluting public and private transport.
