[Sutton Rd/ Longwood Lane.
Rheasey park Farm]

I have lived on the [Road name given] for 22 years & in that time have seen a large increase in traffic, both cars + lorries. The queues last 2+ hours both morning & evening. My major concern is that having more houses in the vicinity ie. Sutton Rd/ Longwood Lane, the roads will be unacceptable to use for local residents. Queues will be longer & time waster. also the impact of increased traffic pollution & noise is of great concern to me.
The impact would also be greater if the other proposed housing goes ahead. The areas of Calderfields, Barr Becon & Three Crowns, all these areas feed onto the Sutton Rd, Longwood Lane therefore increasing traffic & pollution even greater.
With severe traffic congestion our fear is that drivers will take more risks & being impatient waiting in queues, could result in even more road traffic accidents at these major junctions.
