GT are not permanent residents in district.
If theyare homeless, they should apply for social housing though appropriate channels.
Public money should not be used to fund consultation/plan.
Farmland and not for sale and should stay that way.
Likely to cause violence and serious breach of the peace between travellers and local community.

Site is too isolated which may encourage anti-social behaviour. Better to allocate sites within towns/settlements and encourage gypsies/travellers to contribute to society.

Environment Agency identified part of this site as having significant flood risk.
Inadequate pedestrian crossing facilities into the village.
The A429 bypassing Barford is a very dangerous road carrying fast travelling vehicles. Several serious accidents and a recent fatality highlight safety concerns for pedestrian and vehicle access.
Inadequate vehicular access.
Local facilities cannot be accessed on foot, bike or public transport thereby increasing reliance on car journeys which adds to pressure on highway infrastructure and is unsustainable.
Will lead to loss of farmland and rural employment making such sites isolated sites unviable.
Negative impact on Barford St. Peter's School which is already having to expand. Further influx will reduce places for local residents.
Disregards Rural Area Policies: RAPs 1 (New Housing), 6 (New Employment), 10 (Safeguarding Rural Roads) and 15 (Camping and caravan Sites).
Adverse visual impact and cannot successfully be integrated into the landscape.
Site does not allow for peaceful co-existence with community.

Apart from extra people and vehicles from these sites - the only exits are not the bypass - being the A429 with speeds of 60 mph and more - this would be a huge hazard on a road where there has been fatalities already.

Access is on to a busy trunk road which has seen many accidents and a recent fatality. Access/egress would be very dangerous for this site.
Children going to school (by car or on foot) would have to cross the A429. Access to the village is therefore difficult and parking is problematic and is becoming dangerous near the school.
There is no access to buses or provision of footpaths or cycle route.

Barford is a lovely safe unspoilt village, gypsies will spoil this. Site 16 is within the flood plain and site 12 is at flood risk. The bypass is a fast road not suitable for crossing.
