I agree with the ideas, however this will simply not be implemented in practical terms. Alcester has seen massive house building but has no trains, no useable bus service, no cycle lanes to anywhere, everything is based around the automobile. Town growth needs to be where the infrastructure can easily accomodate the expansion. There is no infrastructure at all in Alcester.

However, the provision of new public transport links, such as new railway stations, should be prioritised to relieve pressure on existing travel routes and provide opportunities for new settlement areas. These new settlement areas will be more suitable and sustainable than putting extra pressure on the existing infrastructure in Stratford, which is already under significant strain.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

Future developments should prioritise sustainable transport by integrating dedicated cycle lanes, pedestrian paths, and well-connected public transport. Secure cycle parking, robust EV charging infrastructure, and public transport links to key locations should be included. Measures to minimise car dependency, such as car-sharing schemes and reduced parking provisions, are essential. Infrastructure should support individuals with disabilities, ensure equitable access, and promote affordable public transport for all. These steps will foster an inclusive, accessible, and environmentally responsible community.
For the Parish of Salford Priors ensuring that public transport links effectively serve the towns of Evesham, Stratford-upon-Avon, and Honeybourne Railway Station is essential.

Widening canal towpath will uproot hedgerows and damage wildlife.
Wilmcote station will be difficult to extend disabled access to and only has limited services; other alternatives eg Hatton, Leamington Spa and Warwick Parkway are better options.
Minimal if any potential to alter A3400 north of A46 roundabout
All will drive increased use of cars resulting in increased congestion and higher number of RTCs.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

New public transport links, such as railway stations, should be prioritised to alleviate the pressure on existing routes and facilitate development in more appropriate settlement areas. This approach would help reduce the strain on Stratford’s infrastructure by providing alternative options for commuters and residents, thereby distributing the demand more evenly across the region. By investing in these new transport hubs, the government can ensure that the growing population of Stratford and its surrounding areas has access to efficient and reliable public transport services, which is crucial for sustainable urban development and maintaining the quality of life in the community.

Public transport links such as new rail and bus links should take precedence over more housing, easing pressure on existing travel routes and connect new settlement areas.
Segregated routes will improve the experience and usability of pedestrian/cycleways, if the route is more enjoyable this will encourage more to use it.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

The policy on reducing car ownership here is insubstantial. Car sharing schemes and mobility hubs will do little to deter car ownership if public transport doesn't offer a viable alternative. Yes, Leamington has a well connected train station but within Leamington there is little in the way of reliable public transport (i.e. buses) and cycling infrastructure that would make bicycle use safe and attractive to new users. If Leamington and Warwick will grow by the planned amount, it needs thought about a mass transit system like a light rail system running through the spine of the town.

Ymatebydd: Canal & River Trust

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

The Canal & River Trust considers that any sustainable transport policy should make specific reference to the role that canal towpaths play in providing traffic free routes for walking/cycling for both leisure and utility walkers and providing a key route through parts of South Warwickshire, including the towns of Leamington Spa, Warwick and Stratford as well as linking urban and rural areas. The policy should identify the need for new developments to contribute towards improving access to towpaths, linking towpaths to other walking and cycling routes and the cost of improving towpath surfaces to facilitate year-round use.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

Fine words, and it will be great if good design of routes for different modes is used to give positive benefit to the more sustainable modes. However cycle paths or bus priority features within an edge of town development will achieve nothing useful when they meet the existing town boundary where there is nothing to provide continuity through the urban area. The plan is not realistic and should focus on major new settlements rather than a patchwork of small sites. These small sites cannot deliver the stated policies of the plan.

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

I have concerns about Wilmcote settlement meeting these objectives as follows
Train frequency is an issue, limited destinations, commuting times prohibitive when adding time getting to the station, parking , waiting and additional travel on arriving at destination would take commuters considerably longer than 50 minutes. Costly to create car park, no disability access.
Car commuting to Stratford/Birmingham/Coventry/Evesham, cost widening A46 and work to A3400 would be prohibitive . Increase in pollution and congestion. Over use of country lanes, accident increase
Cycle routes - massive cost to widen path, plus current flooding from fields over toe path, lighting, cost prohibitive .

Crynodeb o'r Gynrychiolaeth:

The plan places strong emphasis on sustainable transport, and seeks to encourage walking, cycling, and public transport use to reduce car dependency. However, it is unclear how active travel routes will connect with those of neighbouring authorities, and whether bus services will be coordinated across boundaries. Would also be prudent to outline how long-distance commuters will be incentivised to switch to sustainable modes.
