Gypsy and Traveller Site Options

GT12 Land north and west of Westham Lane (area of search)

Representation ID: 58502

Received: 23/07/2013

Respondent: Taylor Wimpey UK Ltd

Agent: Barton Willmore

Representation Summary:

Whilst there is an identified need to be met for Gypsies and Travellers it is imperative that the chosen sites are located to embrace opportunities for community cohesion and maximise access to services. GT12 and GT16 are separated from Barford by the A429 which is considered to clearly mark the western edge of the settlement. It is considered that the A429 has a significant impact on the ability to meet the aims for sites in the DCLG Planning Policy for Traveller Sites document. In particular there is concern whether these sites could acheive integrated co existence with the existing community and safely access facilities in Barford including the Primary School. The existence of an earth bund and fence next to the A429 on these sites would be contrary to the objective not to enclose Gypsy and Traveller sites and affect detrimental quality of the potential sites.
