Object to Kings Hill site:
Not only housing but will need amenities - shops, schools, health care, transport and communications. Likely to take number of years to complete - what will residents do in mean time? Will result in greater strain on existing services.
Concerned about impact on run-off and drainage in the area. Concrete and tarmac over sloping area can only increase risk of flooding, which already occurs in periods of heavy rainfall.
Need to expand water treatment works on Stoneleigh Road, putting pressure on River Sowe making flooding more likely.
Traffic will increase along country roads and increase pollution and noise.
People will need to travel to work and impact of extra traffic will be immense, especially on congested junctions (St Martins Road and A45) at peak times. Safety of pedestrians, school children and cyclists compromised. New traffic routes will increase impact on landscape.
