Representation Summary:

Traffic will increase traffic at junctions that are already over-capacity without any additional infrastructure. Breach of CS16 regarding protection/ enhancement of green corridors and the Green Rim (regardless of it being designated as countryside). Breach of policies DM8, DM10 and DM11 as no net biodiversity gains or green infrastructure though development. Acts as a rural buffer. Regardless, should be no development of this land until completion of IGS. Needs to be clarified in the CS. SA needs to fully assess implications on building on site and whether delivering more homes in town centre instead of retail is more sustainable option.

Change suggested by respondent:
