Representation Summary:

SN2001SL
Rejection is appropriate; Cross Road joins Starston’s designated HGV route at Railway Hill
Due to high traffic volumes and narrow single track roads, (largely without pavements) walking and cycling around the village, amongst large vehicles, can be difficult and dangerous.
It is most keenly felt by people pushing buggies and anyone not nimble enough to negotiate overgrown, uneven, narrow paths / rough steps along Public Rights of Way / Permissive Paths.
Lack of agility is more common as we age.
30% of Starston residents are over 65. Just under 10% are aged 0 to 9 (ONS population estimates 2019)
