Object to Old Milverton and Blackdown development.
Green belt land when other land available. Criterion of special circumstances therefore not met.
Land at Europa Way towards Bishops Tachbrook has transport links to M40 and A46. Kenilworth Road clogged most of the day and extra traffic makes things worse.
Green belt local amenity.
No public footpaths on available land nor used as public amenity.
We live in Fryer Avenue close to the proposed new housing development plans. We are dismayed to see that there is a possibility that new housing will be built on land behind Northumberland Road and Kenilworth Rd. We think this is poor decision making from a planning perspective, for the following reasons
1. It is on Green Belt land, when there is other land available. Because of other available land the exceptional circumstances criterion is not met.
2. The land around Europa way towards Bishops Tachbrook has excellent transport links to the M40 the A46. The Kenilworth Road is already clogged for most of the day and will become worse with the extra traffic these homes will bring.
3. This Green Belt land behind Northumberland and Kenilworth Roads is a local amenity. Our family walks the dog and exercises on its footpaths, this access to the country side will be lost if these homes are built. There are no pubic footpaths on the available land, nor is it used as a public amenity.
We would urge you to focus on where the most appropriate site for these houses are, not simply look and say ,well both north and south Leamington can share any redevelopment. New homes should be built on the available land NOT on Green Belt.
