I OBJECT

Traffic on Beeby road which leads to station lane/road already has heavy traffic at peak times the traffic lights on the A47 cannot not cope, the same can be said for the Hamilton area.

The amount of houses recently built and this new proposal will put a GREAT strain on our drainage system which will not be able to cope.

Where would the children go for secondary education the local secondary schools are struggling with allocations already for this area.

Concern for the local wildlife which will be risk once the local Nature reserve is taken away.

Supported in principle provided the necessary infrastructure / services are provided at the time of construction and are fit for purpose. Existing local services e.g. roads, schools, Drs surgeries etc are at capacity and therefore would be unable to support the initial proposed number of dwellings/residents .

A planned community is not just another housing estate.

A major concern is that the consequential , increased traffic flow through Thurnby, Bushby and Scraptoft will make what are already congested roads even more dangerous and create more pollution.. These settlements have very poor transport links by bus, so a car is vital.

Despite our property being the one that is most likely to be affected by this development we only found out about this consultation and its deadline a week before it closed and that was via a flyer through our door from our local councillors about a meeting and I am sure that there are a large number of local residents who are not aware of this consultation despite the fact this development will have a major impact on their lives, especially the elderly.

I do not believe that enough community consultation has been made in relation to such a large new development. Despite living within the green wedge proposed for development and being the property that is most likely to be significantly negatively affected, the only reason we knew about this present consultation was because of a flyer about a meeting being organised to discuss it, a week before the closing date. i am sure that there are plenty of other residents that are likely to be negatively effected that are unaware of this consultation.

This Policy is not suitable and I Object. This will cause issues with increased traffic, noise, pollution, wildlife and the loss of a very popular Scraptoft golf club which is enjoyed by its members. The local residents and community do not want the village to lose its small community. There has been already a large number of poor quality homes built within Srraptoft and along Keyham lane west which has impacted Scraptoft village leading to traffic and noise. Furthermore and there are no community services to facilitate these residents.

I feel I need to object to the statement as Harborough in the past appear to have allowed developers to get away with changing things in their favour rather than residents' wishes or not ensuring they comply with the work they were supposed to do - e.g. church storehouse getting relocated inside the churchyard, the state our sports pitch was left in, unfinished works to footpaths, fencing etc.
Community consultation has been very poor - e.g. nature reserve - this plan for Scraptoft North which was NOT part of the original two years ago when we did make representations.

The word should be maybe not will.
Will makes it sound like a done deal.

I totally object to the development of the 1200 new homes as it will cause major disruption to the area. I have concerns with traffic, noise, pollution, and the major disruption to the natural wildlife and greenery of the area. It will also have a massive impact to the schools, doctors surgeries, hospitals, and nurseries in the area which area currently struggling without the added pressure. The roads cannot handle the traffic now and I fail to see how an additional 1200 homes will manage.

The area cannot sustain an enormous increase in housing and the traffic etc this development will lead to. Scraptoft has already had over 700 houses built in the last seven years apart from other developments in Thurnby of around 500 houses during a similar period. This has already led to serious traffic congestion all around the area but particularly on Station Road at the A47 junction.

An additional clause should be added to the policy entitled 'Delivery and Phasing Programme'. This would require a Delivery and Phasing Programme to be prepared and for the programme to determine and specify the timing (dates) and thresholds (housing completions) for the provision of key facilities and pieces of infrastructure, as well as setting out the proposed housing trajectory and phasing arrangements.

This would provide the assessment to justify the timings and thresholds and
obviate the need to set these out in the Policy at this stage.
