Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

The employment opportunities at the business park will not provide adequate employment for an additional 120 people at the average ratio of people per household in Norfolk. It is likely that public transport will need to be improved to serve development in the preferred area, and that considerable traffic management will be needed by Highways to manage additional private car journeys. Cycle paths will need to be included to maintain sustainable transport options north to Norwich and south to Beccles and Bungay,

Change suggested by respondent:

The employment opportunities at Brooke business park is irrelevant to the housing plan here, please remove mention of employment opportunities in this paragraph, as the type of housing proposed will not match the type of housing needed by the proposed employment opportunities at the Business park
