Representation Summary:

Holbeache Greenbelt BCP site ref DUH 208 page 371 +DUH211 DSA1 pages 419-423
my objections are as follows: ~
The roads all around the proposed sites are totally inadequate for the traffic these developments will bring. many trees will be lost which is appalling. The island at Swindon Road already floods during heavy rainfall so take away the fields which at least absorb some of the water + all this will cause is more flooding ,wrecking cars and the road surface.
There are two schools within the proposed area, with many students walking adding more traffic volume is likely to cause more dangerous situations and hazards.
These proposals are purely for housing with no extra facilities i.e. Doctors, schools being included.
I live on the A449 and the volume of traffic is already horrendous this will only get worse as will the state of the already pot-holed road
