Testun llawn:
I feel very strongly about the plans to develop such a large area of green belt land in Milverton. I use old Milverton lane twice daily through the village to take my children to school & frequently experience high volumes of traffic travelling along the Kenilworth road thus making it lengthy & difficult to cross the roundabout up to sandy lane, this journey would be impossible if work commences on the land for people like myself & anyone attempting to get to Kenilworth or Coventry. Also when we are experiencing heavy rain , which is becoming more frequent, the water overflows off the farmers fields and runs down old Milverton lane to the roundabout where it floods, making driving conditions very difficult. If all that land is built upon taking away any drainage the floods will be devastating. People move to Coventry from leamington & beyond because they can't afford the property prices round here ,North Leamington being one of the most expensive areas .I would like to know how it could be made possible to stipulate that only people from a certain area could purchase these homes (as the land is required for Coventry over spill). We currently have no buses that pick up in Old Milverton lane for residents that don't drive, instead they have to walk to the rugby road & get one there. Would a park & ride service take people into leamington thus helping local businesses or would it take them to directly to Coventry ? These are a few of my concerns apart from the many obvious ones .... Pollution, noise ,loss of wildlife, congestion etc.
Myself & my family have lived on Old Milverton lane for 20 years & my mother in law lives at Priors house nursing home opposite the Nuffield private hospital. She also would be affected greatly as herself & her friends like to sit in the grounds watching the wildlife & this would sadly be impossible if work commences as many of them have breathing difficulties. I understand the demand for more housing but really feel there must be more appropriate land either on brown field sites or land that's available nearer to where it's needed.
I hope my views will be taken into consideration
