IP150d+e: No justification for reverting from employment to housing. Traffic impact not assessed. Nothing to rule out piecemeal applications. It is visually and ecologically connected to the adjacent nature reserve. Density is higher than surroundings. Existing green infrastructure should be preserved. Need for green infrastructure will increase density. Vagueness about how it will come forward. Without a comprehensive and cumulative assessment of all proposals in this area the piecemeal developments would exacerbate bad planning impacts on biodiversity, green space, traffic, noise and air quality. A comprehensive proposal must be subject to EIA. Referred to as brownfield but clearly greenfield.
