There are numerous "Brown Field" sites in Ipswich and these have acres of land that are eminently suited to housing development without the need to take away prime agricultural land that is needed to feed the growing population of the United Kingdom
The traffic that will be generated by these additional homes will overwhelm the road network in the immediate vicinity of the proposed development. (They struggle to cope with the current volume of vehicles). The proposal of tinkering with a couple of road junctions will not solve the problem. Major road works are needed to accommodate residents vehicles.
