Representation Summary:

Pleased that there is a coherent plan for this area including open spaces and preserving trees and hedges. I have particular concerns about: the maintenance of footways on Westerfield Road; the design of the buildings; provision of adequate access roads and parking (including for visitors); transport links (could there be a shuttle rail link with Westerfield Station moved to this site?); and traffic bottlenecks further down the network i.e. Bolton Lane, Ipswich School and the Fonnereau Road/Crown Street junction which have not been adequately addressed. Also infrastructure must be put in place early on in the development.
