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.

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.

Stocks hill is allready used as a cut through. 35 houses with on average two cars would result in cars being spilled onto the main streets. No public transport or links available. No infrastructure in an oversubscrbied school which will not be able to cope. Would rely on more homes linked to oil which is not cost effective or efficient. No local buses/shops which is walkable would rely on more car journeys over a village bridge which is not built to take this strain.

The school is oversubscribed.
The public transport links are poor and realistically you need to assume that each new house would have two cars travelling to Norwich for shopping, schools and work. Stocks Hill is narrow and has had to have traffic calming measures put in recently. It is busy during rush hour periods. Parking on the pavement outside the village hall is already creating safety issues exactly where the new residents would need to enter Stocks Hill from the new estate.

Bawburgh School is already over-subscribed and there is only one bus each day Monday to Friday and none at weekends. Any families moving into the village will rely on cars to access schools, GP services, shops, sports facilities etc. There is no pedestrian access to areas outside the village and the roads, particularly at commuting times, have many vehicles travelling dangerously along narrow roads.

These are the only facilities and they are not enough to allow people to rely solely on the village for all their daily needs. There is one bus to Wymondham a WEEK and one back a few hours later. Local park and ride only goes to UEA and hospital - not the city. Primary school is already oversubscribed and little room for expansion given previous development on its land. Secondary school is already having to be extended due to other local developments. Primary school is a lovely small rural school with a family feel which would be lost with expansion.

The proposed ~15% increase in housing/population for the village is unacceptable as it will stretch local services further, contradicting the criteria laid out in section A.5 “Planning policies should identify opportunities for villages to grow and thrive, especially where this will support local services”. Furthermore, the only services highlighted are a pub, a village hall and a primary school. None of these could viably be enhanced by the construction of these additional houses, contradicting SNVC objective 2.

Plan incorrectly states a daily bus service. There is in fact only a weekly bus to Wymondham.
