Representation Summary:

This proposal is a high density development in a peripheral location with access from Kingston Way, a narrow, winding, cambered, undulating cul-de-sac unsuitable for high volumes of traffic. Traffic from the development will create a bottleneck traffic situation in Kingston Way with a much heightened risk of traffic accidents. The junctions of Alvington Way and Bates Close and Bates Close and Kingston Way are of particular concern and this will be exacerbated by the proposed new road linking the north of the town to the west increasing use of Alvington Way as a route to the east
