To build on the field south of Brooke Road would be to fly in the face of this policy as there are no
exceptional circumstances. The opposite is true. The site was rejected in the last iteration of the
Draft Local as there is no capacity on the road for more vehicles as the highway issues have been
accepted as having a ‘severe’ impact (see further below).

Policy SS3 focuses on development within the PLD so the emphasis is on building within the new PLD and not infringing this alike H1.2 at Brooke Road

The site of Land South of Brooke Road must be removed from the Draft Local Plan as it has been proved in the last plan to cause severe impact on highway safety and the “residual cumulative impacts on the road network”

Re-writing the facts in terms of a site assessment is wholly unacceptable and calling something viable, when it patently is not, is reprehensible.

The idea of building on Brooke Rd needs now finally to be laid to rest once and for all as any site allocation needs to be part of the arterial road system where traffic is designed to flow. Brooke Rd is not a main arterial road, as stated before it is a bendy, narrow single file lane to all intents and purposes.
