Representation Summary:
We do not agree that Ipswich has strong transport links the evidence being lobbying of Government to improve the local rail network and journey times to London and increasing congestion on the A12 and A14 and recognition of need for improvements in the Suffolk Growth Strategy. The CS should acknowledge this too. Within the town there are concerns that the Travel Ipswich Scheme has not slowed traffic down and the CS should reflect this view and doubts over whether traffic lights should replace roundabouts. Increased housing will only increase congestion.
