Support the vision but consider the strategy will not deliver it. The development of the Garden Suburb will result in severe congestion in north Ipswich and the town centre. Proposals to increase opportunities for buses, walking and cycling to the town centre are flawed as evidence challenges the viability of job creation in the town centre. Homes growth without jobs and sustainable transport will result in more commuting. This will harm prospects for investment. Updated traffic modelling and air quality modelling must be undertaken.
