South Norfolk Village Clusters Housing Allocations Plan (Reg. 19 Pre-submission Draft)

Representation ID: 2579

Received: 01/03/2023

Respondent: Mrs Kate Smallwood

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

1) Bawburgh has just one bus a week to Wymondham, not a daily service. The village is not currently served by a public transport network sufficient for the proposed number of additional residents

2) The primary school in the village is currently full to capacity. 35 new dwellings means the potential for many more children living in the village and a knock on effect on school places in the whole area.

Change suggested by respondent:

The introduction of regular (multiples times a day) buses to Wymondham and Norwich.

More schools / school places in the area to accommodate the huge amount of development taking place in all the local villages and outskirts of Norwich.
