Representation Summary:

I object to the proposal to remove the provision for a new train station next to Ravenside for the following reasons:

1. It conflicts with RDC policy SRM1 which seeks to mitigate the effects of climate change by promoting sustainable transport;

2. It conflicts with RDC policy TR2 which commits the council to making 'Improvements in the availability, quality and efficiency of sustainable transport';

3. It conflicts with RDC's responsibilities under the Climate Change Act 2008 to take action to reduce carbon emissions
