BASE HEADER

No GP in Barford.
Local school is oversubscribed.
No safe access to and from Barford by-pass. This is a single carriageway designed to improve traffic flow, trailered vehicles such as caravans turning onto and off this road would be a nuisance and a danger. Pedestrians would have to cross a main road, which probably means a Pelican crossing causing further traffic disruption.
No mains utilities.
Major detriment to the character of the area - high grade farmland with views across the river Avon plain.
Would place huge strain in a thriving local community and would ruin a community which has worked damned hard to build itself into something special, eg the local shop. This would promote antagonism and resentment in the local community.
Junction 15 is one of the busiest motorway junctions in the area and is a major bottleneck, despite huge recent expense aimed at alleviating congestion. Adding regular towed vehicle access to this junction would cause further delay and increase accident rates.
