Grave concerns over increased danger from a higher volume of traffic (eg 50 cars and delivery vans and HGV lorries) using Church Road and Slade Lane (Slad) which is the main access road for the Yelverton and Alpington villages from the A146 (the Norwich – Lowestoft main road).
Increased volume of traffic along Church Road and Slade Lane would also increase danger for pedestrians as there are no pavements. And also for cyclists too.
Also concerned that additional demands on other infrastructure eg. broadband and mobile bandwidth, electricity, water, sewage and school capacity will result in impaired quality of service.
Plans should be postponed until such time as road access and other infrastructure issues have been resolved.
