Representation ID: 27655

Received: 10/09/2019

Respondent: Mr John Drew

Representation Summary:

The road leading to Ffordd Triban is narrow, as is the cul-de-sac. This has already led to access problems for emergency and service vehicles due to increased car ownership in recent years, and roadside parking. Any increase in traffic will exacerbate this issue, which is already a problem. This, with the resident population as it currently stands.
The development of yet more green land will destroy valuable wildlife habitat for newts, bats, badgers etc. Protection of wildlife and green land should be given priority. The surrounding area has become very built up increasingly limiting habitat / range to Pwllycrochan woods.

Change suggested by respondent:

I request that the site (5) is removed from the RDLP . There are sites with better and safer access which should be considered, with less damage to local wildlife, and quality of life of local residents.
