Development and Site Allocations (DaSA) Local Plan - Options and Preferred Options

Representation ID: 22537

Received: 18/02/2017

Respondent: Jo Roesen

Representation Summary:

I strongly support option A of the DaSA to continue to roll forward policy EM8.
I am a former resident of Kent, retiring to the Cotswolds 5 years ago.
I have been a working member of the K&ESR for over 40 years.
It would be a great setback if the line were to be truncated at Bodiam, without its historical connection to the main line. I believe in the economic and tourism benefits to the area, as well as the facility for people to arrive by train.
