This is factually incorrect.
The bus is not daily. It runs once per week on a Friday.
The village is not connected to any regular public transport. This means that any additional houses added to the village will have to be serviced by individual cars.
The village does not have a local shop so all shopping has to be done by delivery or by car.
Adding additional houses to a village so poorly served by public transport contradicts Section 9 of the NPPF. It is clear that transport issues have not been fully considered.
Bawburgh has few facilities; a primary school, village hall and public house. There is a single weekly bus service to Wymondham. The village has no access to a shop without a vehicle.
