Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

Recognise the Council's responsibilities but suggest proposed site GT02 is inappropriate and should not be pursued.

It is next to an extremely busy, High Risk road. The risks are undeniable: my friend was killed by a vehicle reversing out of a Gypsy / Traveler camp onto the road she was on. Access to local facilities is poor, including no doctors' surgery nearby with spare capacity.

Objection to Gypsy and Traveler Site GT 02

Whilst the Local Authorities responsibilities are recognised, it is submitted that proposed site GT02 is inappropriate as follows;
It is immediately adjacent to an extremely busy road which is a High Risk travel route. The inherent risks attached to this location are undeniable. (A friend of mine was killed by a vehicle reversing out of a Gypsy / Traveler camp onto the road she was travelling on. The fact that the Traveler's vehicle should never have been reversing out didn't change the sad outcome). The availability and accessibility of local facilities is poor; in particular there is no nearby doctors surgery able to cope with the extra medical support. I recommend that this option is not pursued as a Gypsy site.
