Representation Summary:

The proposed site is not safe [being so close to the A14], there is a noise issue, there is already a gypsy/traveler site on this side of Ipswich, the schools are not adequate to take extra pupils.

Full text:

I fully object to the proposal to change the above site into a gipsy/traveler site. The site being so close to the A14 is not conducive to the welfare of the gipsy/traveler community. The noise level would surely be above the recommended tolerance level and the imminent risk of their children or animals gaining access to the A14 pose a significant detriment to their safety as well as the users of the A14. The proposed access to the site from the bramford road could cause problems to the traffic on the bramford road and there is a real danger of collision. The schools in the area are not adequate for the impending increase of children. There is already a gipsy traveler site on this side of Ipswich (West Meadows). I am concerned about crime in and around the bramford village area and this would be detrimental to the residents of the village.
