The proposed plan (H42) does not comply with the Air Quality Standards Regulations 2010 including 2004/107/EC and 2008/50/EC as it will result in reduced air quality in the area due to increased road traffic, dust and air pollutants from the increased housing and development. The proposal increases use of gas and fossil fuel burning devices such as combination boilers, gas fires and gas fired central heating failing to address environmental issues and fails to deal with the compounded effect of introducing additional vehicular traffic (cars, motorcycles, lorries, vans etc) to the area. The proposal will reduce the air quality of the surrounding area in the immediate and long term resulting in increased hazards to those currently living in the area and future residents.
