BASE HEADER

I would like to register my objections to the proposed gypsy and traveller sites in SW Warwick;

1. The infrastructure just cannot cope with even more pressure on it's roads especially as Chase Meadow is still under construction that will not be completed for several more years.As most homeowners have at least one or more cars per household the extra pressure on our roads especially Stratford Road and the more problematic Hampton road any further traffic from this area would create a tremendous burden .Race days already cause problems with traffic and parking,especially side streets and verges.

2. The local schools and Doctors surgeries are already under pressure and should not be put under any more strain to enable them to work efficiently.

3. The site proposed on Hampton road has parts which are on the local flood plain and should not be built on.

4.Warwick. is a beautiful old town.It' popularity with visitors should not be blighted by the fact that a traveller site with all it's implications stands within a fantastic historical area.I feel this would deter visitors from the town thereby affecting local businesses.

5.Air pollution is becoming a real problem in this area due to fumes from increased traffic.

6. I am also deeply concerned about the environmental effects on the wildlife and possible pollution problems on Gog Brook,also potential risk of transferable disease from unvaccinated animals to animals in the surrounding area i.e race horses.

I hope all of my objections and concerns will be taken into account at the next meeting to discuss the planned sites.
