Testun llawn:

It is my understanding that the land on Hampton Road (GT11 Land at Budbrooke Lodge, Race Course and Hampton Road) is being considered as an alliterative site for the proposed Gypsy and Travellers.


Whilst I understand the site is not currently a "Preferred Option", I would like to take this opportunity to register my strong opposition to the traveller sites (that have been proposed as an "Alternative") for site Hampton Road (GT11).

I live on the Chase Meadow estate and my daughter attends Newburgh School, which even with it's double form entry is operating at full capacity for the current reception year and the September 2014 reception year. The Chase Meadow estate is dramatically increasing in size and new families are moving onto the estate swelling the population and putting more demand on the facilities available. It is my concern that the schools in the area will not be able to cope with a further increase in pupils outside the anticipated increase that has been expected from the new houses on the estate.

My family is registered with the local GP Surgery (The New Dispensary) as are many families on the estate and the availability for appointments is already restricted due to the sheer number of patients, this will only increase as the estate grows and my concern is that the surgery cannot cope with the number of additional patients that the traveller sites may house.

Warwick is a beautiful and historic town for which tourists travel to visit annually in conjunction with Stratford Upon Avon. The proposed Hampton Road and Junction 15 sites are key routes into Warwick and should be preserved. The Hampton Road site is located next to the Flat Straight for Warwick Race Course and will be visible to those attending events.

I would like to thank you for taking the time to read and file my objections.
