Following a freedom of information request to WDC I obtained the 2012 peak time traffic flows at various locations around Warwick & Leamington. By comparing these to the projections contained in the WDC Strategic Transport Assessment I was able to reveal the true predicted increases in traffic which will result from the revised development strategy / local plan. For instance the increase along the B4087 Oakley Wood Road through Bishops Tachbrook at peak times is a staggering 75% or 1,000 cars per hour. Our community speedwatch team have collected data that shows 42% of speeding motorists through the village are travelling at over 40mph in a 30mph limit. For those of us that are raising families along Oakley Wood Road this represents a massive deterioration in our environment from pollution, congestion & safety. The reason that so many cars will be coming through our village is because so much housing has been disproportionately shifted into the south of Whitnash. And this does not even include the 3,000 houses at Lighthorne/Gaydon who will surely use this route into Leamington.
