This site is felt unsuitable and unachievable for 25 dwellings. There will be a detrimental effect on traffic flow and road safety with the unsatisfactory proposed vehicular access. There are already safety concerns for residents and accidents have occurred.
The Street is a major thoroughfare with a regular local private bus service to Norwich city which adds to traffic flows at peak times. Traffic mitigation could be achieved by reducing number of housing units to 8-10 but highway access and new footpath requirements remain unachievable as they cross significant third party private property and road signage, telegraph poles.
