Representation Summary:

Road access to Turkey Road.
Foolhardiness in the extreme to entertain ANY access point for this site. Turkey Road is already a "rat-run", blighted by heavily ladden lorries full of bricks. Additionally vast tipper type lorries haul backwards and forwards to the brickworks. There is no scope for footpaths on north side of Turkey Rd, so all pedestrians will need to run the gauntlet of very heavily loaded lorries to reach the south side of the road. This, coupled with the already dangerous junction with St. Marys Lane, will only add to the poor visibility for both traffic and pedestrians.
