We support identification of Land North and South of Welsh Road West Southam as part of SG12. In the Interim Sustainability Appraisal SG12 is identified as one of the best performing options. However, the assessment of landscape impacts is not robust and further assessments should be undertaken. We have attached a Landscape and Visual Technical Note and Expert Opinion which demonstrates SG12 should score ‘Minor Adverse Impact” for the Landscape Sustainability Objective.

Land North and South of Welsh Road West Southam would support sustainable housing and economic growth in Southam and improve connectivity between the site and local communities. It would support sustainable commuting options and promote opportunities for modal shift. This accords with the SWLP’s ambition for a well-connected South Warwickshire and the wider Government Plan for Change which seeks to provide homes near businesses and employment opportunities.
