Erosion of green belt & disruption of views of Warwick town from affected area; the scale of development too large - currently standing at circa 600 dwellings, proposed increase of up to 25%. Too much.
Green belt has seen more than enough erosion already; most obviously in the immediate area by Warwick Parkway railway station, which has already increased car parking capacity twice. Even then, rail users are increasingly resorting to parking cars in Hampton Magna, often in dangerous positions. It is possible that it will need to increase in size and proportion again to meet demand caused by 25% growth in village.
The road infrastructure is insufficient for a substantial increase given the existing congestion which centres of the single track road beneath the railway bridge.
Land suggested for gypsy sites should be used for house building. Whilst it is acknowledged that WDC is duty bound to address the issue, it is not particularly welcome when other essential services are being reduced or abandoned altogether.
Existing services are already fully subscribed.
