Received: 24/02/2020

Respondent: Rushmere St Andrew Parish Council

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

Rushmere St Andrew Parish Council objects to the inclusion of Policy ISPA 4.1. This allocation will significantly increase traffic on the Woodbridge to Claydon corridor via Playford Road, Rushmere Street and Humber Doucy Lane. This development should not take place until significant improvements to roads and travel has been made. The Cross Working Policy refers to upgrading of road junctions but this does not addess the concerns of the parish. More should be done to improve local roads and travel and it should be specified that improvements should be implemented prior to development.

Change suggested by respondent:

Delete Policy ISPA 4.1 and this policy.
