Supports allocation for residential development, but objects to the detail of the allocation - the proposed density of a future scheme is considered very low for a sustainable location and the abnormal costs associated with remediating the site.
A mixed-use scheme, comprising residential development with additional community uses, such as a doctor's surgery is suggested. This should be reflected in the Council's Site Allocations Document.

The Society do not object to disposal of part of the site to the school to the north, however, such a sale needs to reflect the abnormal costs associated with the site, including the presence of contamination, and in turn to acknowledge the impacts on viability of proposals for development of the site as a whole as referred to in submission reference 25677

The Society objects to the following wording in this policy's supporting text "cycle and pedestrian bridge to link the District Centre with the housing to the north of the railway". The provision of land and the cost associated with such infrastructure is not considered viable when acknowledging the abnormal costs associated with the site, including the presence of contamination.
As currently worded, it is considered that this aspect of the policy is not justified as it fails to properly consider viability and therefore fails to meet the tests of soundness, as required by paragraph 35 of the NPPF (2019).

When this area is redeveloped I would consider it prudent to include a footpath from Hines Road to connect to Derby Road at/near Rose Hill School for the obvious benefits to the safety of parents and children.
I would consider an access road to the redevelopment adjacent to the school to be an error, due to safety reasons and congestion (Any Road link by-passing the Felixstowe Road/ Derby Road junction would become a rat-run.

It should include a pedestrian route from Hines Road to Derby Road near Rose Hill School. Many children and their parents walk along Derby Road to the school. The road is often busy and the pavement is narrow. The provision of the new pedestrian route would make it a pleasanter journey and there would be less chance of an accident. It would also reduce exposure to traffic pollution.
Recommend a pedestrian route from Felixstowe Road near King Edwards Road to close to the school.
An additional benefit is that it would be pleasanter for people walking to Derby Road Station.
