This section fails to:

1. Set out a realistic programme for the Link Road;
2. Identify how any shortfall in public funding for the Link Road will be made up in order to enable the scheme to proceed;
3. Set out a realistic programme for development
4. Explain how community and employment uses are delivered alongside new housing and the implications this may have for delivery.

There is particular elaboration on the reasons why the Link Road programme is unjustifiably optimistic. Substantial contributions in advance of development are very difficult to achieve. More time is required for detailed consents.
