Revised Development Strategy
Leek Wootton
Representation ID: 53497
Received: 25/07/2013
Respondent: Leek Wootton & Guy's Cliffe Parish Council
The Parish Council is concerned over the absence of detailed information regarding the phasing of the proposed 6,622 new dwellings proposed by the RDS and fear that much of this development could be concentrated in the first 5-year period.
Construction of circa 80 new dwellings as a single development would represent a 21% increase in the village housing stock and this would exert considerable pressure upon the local infrastructure, especially Leek Wootton School which is already at capacity.
An estimated increase of 28 pupils would require the construction of 3 additional classrooms, plus significant extension to related facilities.

Respondent: Leek Wootton & Guy's Cliffe Parish Council
The Parish Council are concerned that insufficient attention has been paid to the impact of the proposed new development at Thickthorn, Kenilworth, on secondary traffic routes.
Leek Wootton suffers from a great deal of unnecessary through traffic, trying to avoid congestion in Kenilworth. This is caused by traffic leaving the northbound A46 early in order to avoid the Thickthorn roundabout but also, those seeking to use the "back route" around Kenilworth via Woodcote Lane, Rouncil Lane and Rounds Hill.
This presents major problems at the 'Anchor Junction', especially at peak times.

The Parish Council welcomes the attention given in the RDS to the need to preserve green 'open space' between villages and the towns within the District.
To this end, we will seek the continued support of the District Council to acquire the woodland to the north-west of the village - currently forming part of the police HQ site - in order to allow public access and create a local amenity.
