Having looked at the plans for the sites near Harbury I wanted to write in with my objections to the areas selected for the following reasons.

Harbury village is busier than ever. With the recent (and continued) addition of houses by the park it's noticeable how much more activity there is.

It's harder to park, and as someone who lives right in the middle of the village I frequently have people parking over my drive meaning I'm stuck in my car while they go to the shop. If residents of the new traveller sites frequent the shop, this problem will be worse.

The doctors surgery often has a week lead in time to get an appointment.

The school and nursery also seem quite full. My daughter is at nursery and although I don't have numbers, I notice how many cars there are at drop off and pick up (despite calls to walk to school). This problem would only get worse as you couldn't expect children from the traveller site to walk all that way.

Accessing the land looks like it would be from the fosse. I think it would be much better to access the sites from the Whitnash side for easier access into Leamington that has a lot more resources to cope with demand.

GT03 and GT04 seem too isolated compared to other sites and I think an unfair amount of pressure would be put on Harbury resources. Especially considering they are still building alongside the park.

Harbury really needs pause on new residents while resources catch up to demand.
