We wish to object to the overall plan to build 8,100 new homes in the Warwick area, and specifically on the area of restraint, phase 1E on the Core Strategy Preferred Options document (Plan 5).

Firstly we would point out the lack of dispersal of the planned development (namely 1A,1B,1E,1F,2F and 3F). The planned development is focused almost entirely on land south of Warwick .This area has already been significantly developed in recent years, exerting pressure on existing services and infrastructure.
There has been no plan for the infrastructure in terms of drainage, sewerage, roads, public transport, schools and hospitals, as confirmed by councillors in the public meeting on 17th August 2009. Nor have there been impact studies on traffic, schools, drainage, sewerage, hospitals or employment. Traffic in South Warwick is already at saturation, with Myton Road being virtually impassable between 8am-9am and 4pm-6pm. There is no capacity on the roads for another 8,000 car journeys focussed on peak time. This will not only have a detrimental impact on the quality of life of current Warwick residents, but also on Warwick's capacity to bring in tourism.
The Schools in the area are oversubscribed . There is no capacity for extra cars etc at the stations for commuters. The hospital would require significant expansion.
