The CS fails to properly assess development and infrastructure requirements including the cumulative effect of traffic and air pollution. In particular it fails to demonstrate that the Northern Fringe Development would not increase traffic congestion and traffic on the surrounding roads to unacceptable levels. The absence of new roads or sufficient upgrades of existing routes in North East Ipswich indicates that the Council is not taking the additional traffic that will be generated from the Development seriously.
