Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

The SW Relief Road was required for the Core Strategy LMA proposal and won't happen due to funding. LMA should be scaled back, not expanded. A line to Honeybourne is a red herring and raises planning and legal issues, would result in the loss of a community facility, and is impractical to link to the station north of the town centre.

Existing lines and stations north of the river and the strategic road network should guide the location of new settlements and growth of existing settlements. At E1 the road network is near-capacity and transport infrastructure is poor. The transport options are overly optimistic and won't prevent large traffic impacts in Stratford-upon-Avon, Welford-on-Avon, Long Marston and Clifford Chambers. Quality of life will suffer from delays, unpredictability, noise and pollution. The All Things Wild application highlighted transport constraints as at withdrawal the Local Highway Authority's position was objection. E1 is adjacent and within the setting of the Cotswold National Landscape. To the north there are elevated views from Preston-on-Stour from Rights of Way and other public vantage points. The site is conspicuous from the west (Long Marston to Welford). There was an outstanding Landscape objection to the All Things Wild application. The north of the site is prone to flooding.
