Respondent: Mr IAN CLARKE

Sound? Yes

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

The proposal will place further significant burden on our inadequate road infrastructure and services. Leading to significant increase in traffic movement in and out of the villages, where in many places there is only enough room for single lane traffic. Verges and driveways are already being eroded, by the large number of traffic movements at peak times.
It would be detrimental to the quality of life for residence on Church Road with the significant increase in traffic movements from this proposed development. The additional traffic would also increase the risk to pedestrians, as there are no footpaths in Yelverton.

Change suggested by respondent:

Do not develop on the site, as the surrounding areas and infrastructure are already being negatively affected by previous developments in the villages.
