-WCC's relevant traffic management policy, established at the Warwick Area Committee in January 2008 is to plan for traffic reductions in Warwick town centre. Any scheme which actively seeks to increase traffic in Warwick town centre is out of order and unacceptable.

-The WCC's 12-hour traffic counts and modelling were based on statistics arising at times of maximum traffic flow (i.e. when schools were in session). School related traffic adds 14% to the traffic burden during the morning peak hour (Warwick Society, 2003) and this exceptional flow occurs on about 150 days per year. The mitigation measures proposed which will be in operation 24/7 are based entirely on data relating to just 300 hours per year. The 12 mitigation measures are entirely counterproductive at off-peak times.
