Robertsbridge:
MM not compliant with sustainable community strategy of reducing traffic impact. Parking provision for train travellers is totally inadequate, Station and Lower Brightling roads are in effect one way, restricting access for heavy vehicles to Darvell and buses to school. George Hill and High Street also heavily congested by parking for trains. 36 more houses, unacceptable impact.
MM unsound because sustainability appraisal refers to key test of maintaining village character. Additional 36 houses will increase traffic congestion through additional parking, neither major new car parks nor road widening will satisfy sustainability appraisal.
