Representation Summary:

Object to inward-looking focus regarding traffic infrastructure for Ipswich Garden Village, ignoring anything outside the Borough boundary. The Parish Council have severe reservations about the predicted peak hour traffic generation, which is based on surveyed traffic for similar housing areas. Suffolk Constabulary measured traffic through Tuddenham St Martin: 30,000 vehicles travelled through the village in one week, last November. This brings in to disrepute the traffic modelling work using old census data. This concern has been raised before with Ipswich Borough Council and Suffolk County Council but no reply has been received. Concerned about the plan's impacts on the village.
