The rail system holds the key to facilitating responsible housing expansion, particularly in areas surrounding both new and existing stations. However, for rail to fulfil this transformative role, it must be underpinned by strong passenger service levels and seamless connectivity to central metropolitan areas.

If the SWLP is to permit these spatial developments, it must commit to requiring investment in the rail infrastructure. This not only supports sustainable living environments but also ensures that we can effectively manage future growth while safeguarding our communities and the environment.

The South Warwickshire Local Plan must resolutely prioritise securing investment where there is spatial and/or large-scale development to ensure there is no diminution in existing services while crucially enable a dynamic and interconnected future.

Without investment in the rail infrastructure (which must include both capital infrastructure and services) the two areas defined as SG23 and SG24 are opposed.
