There are no local schools and the public transport system is insufficient to cope with additional pupils, so expensive taxi services would be required to transport pupils to schools. It is not convenient to a local GP surgery (warwick gates surgery is too full to obtain realistic appointments). The busy road has not been upgraded to cope with additional traffic, the junction with the Fosse Way is notified as a dangerous junction. During rush hours some drivers take risks when crossing the junction; an increase in traffic would increase the dangerous driving in this area which could cause serious injuries and deaths.This is not a safe road especially for cyclists as it is too narrow. There are no pavements so pedestrian access is none existent so increasing the reliance on using cars and vans. Local properties in the area do not have access to mains sewerage or gas and none of these services can be upgraded for local householders in the area - it seems remarkable that this has been overlooked by the council. Local businesses cannot have their broadband services upgraded - by the county councils own admission they fall into the 10% that will not benefit from the £16M broadband upgrade proposed for other areas of the county. Local homeowners are not allowed to build new homes due to the local plan of other district councils. Does this mean that rules imposed on local homes over many years can be overturned because warwickdc wishes to place the burden on their borders so other councils have to deal with any infrastructure issues, traffic problems or school places? This does seem a very poorly thought through proposal for this area.
