Representation Summary:

RR/2017/1705 DaSA Part II Policy BEX9 (Spindlewood)
I periodically travel along the A259 mostly on public transport, very occasionally by car. I moved to Little Common 4 years ago and in this space of time I'm alarmed about the increase of traffic which now exists.
The new Rosewood housing estate will cause addition tailbacks along the A259 resulting in poisonous car emissions polluting the air. Why has RDC never mentioned/addressed this issue recently?
Meads Road and Spindlewood Drive are totally unsuitable for heavy traffic. I frequently cycle in both directions of Meads Avenue, with cars parked in the middle of the road waiting to go up or down, and with cars directly behind me. It makes cycling extremely hazardous. Rat suns will be crated making it extremely difficult for pedestrian to walk along Maple Walk and Avenue where there no pavements.
