Concerns on road network to cope with additional traffic without northern relief road. Concerned bridges not built in time (March 2022) to secure HIF and permissions only require vehicle bridge on delivery of 699 homes, impossible before March 2022 (HIF). Bridge too narrow for all road users and needed for safety. Without early delivery of road/ pedestrian bridge, no safe walking/cycling. Need contingency measures for alternative funding and evidence that infrastructure deliverable. Delivery of roads must be compatible with traffic modelling. Unless alternative funding provided, levels of modal shift will not be achieved by 2026.
