Representation Summary:

I object to this in the strongest terms Peulwys Lane is a very narrow Lane . Traffic will use this to link up with Coed Coch Rd and Llanelian Rd. The road is not suitable for heavy traffic. Linking this development in some way to HighlandsRd is a nonsense as you will cause further congestion on Llysfaen Rd and Abergele Rd as traffic from Bryn Colwyn and Tan Llwyfan jjoin the affray. This will be the ruin of Old Colwyn as a village community. Schools, surgeries cannot cope. Our infrastructure is up to capacity. This madness needs to stop

Change suggested by respondent:

Remove from the plan and don't resurrect it at a later date

Respondent: Mr Ian Davies

Representation Summary:

I object because of the impact on wildlife in the area , the loss of open countryside. Also the extra traffic and congestion it will put on Peulwys Lane , Llanelian Road , Coed Coch Road . These roads are already under strain due to housing developments at the top of Llanelian road which also have planning permission for more houses. The strain on local schools on Doctors is also an issue.

Change suggested by respondent:

I would like it not to be built

Respondent: Miss D Foulds

Representation Summary:

The proposed development would:
*Increase the risk of radon exposure by excavating the soil to build*
*Impose upon already existing large communities.
*Overstretch GP surgery and schools.
*Create undue stress for medical staff and teachers.
*Create longer waits for appointments/treatment, and reduce quality
education by increasing teacher/student ratio.
*Increase congestion and heavy traffic along already overused surrounding
roads.
*Increase safety risk at Llanellian Road/Peulwys Lane T-junction.
*Create increased traffic at Marine roundabout, raising safety concerns
generally, considering the amount of incidents/collisions occurred over
recent years.
*Additionally, school-children cross these roads 5-days a week, often not
paying due care or attention.

Change suggested by respondent:

The plan to build in this area does not appear to be well considered at
all. I am objecting to the proposed development based on the above points.
I cannot think of a single positive reason to build such a large amount of
houses, which would look out of character, in this area.

Respondent: Miss Jo Hughes

Representation Summary:

The development would

Increase traffic on Llanelian Rd, Coed Coch Rd and Peulwys Lane - current roads are too narrow and many houses don't have access to off road parking. There is insufficient parking at Colwyn Bay football ground and during home games football supporters park on both sides of the road reducing this to a single line of traffic.

Place a burden on services, schools are facing funding cuts and Betsi Cadwaladr is struggling to recruit GPs to area.

Increase traffic on the marine roundabout

Impact local wildlife - hedge rows and green open spaces.

Respondent: Mr B Edwards

Representation Summary:

The proposed development would:
1.Increase surrounding road usage, increasing maintenance costs and decreasing road safety for drivers and pedestrians.
2.Create noise and air pollution, and radon exposure, during building and following construction with increased residents/road users.
3.Building would extend into open countryside **planning previously rejected for this reason.**
4.Lead to loss of privacy and light for existing properties.
5.Negatively impact upon existing residents' psychological wellbeing.
6.Reduce employment opportunities by introducing 450 more people/families into village setting.
7.Deeply harm environment character**planning previously rejected for this reason** and negatively impact upon wildlife. Loss of biodiversity.
8.Lead to serious mains sewerage/water supply/drainage issues.

Change suggested by respondent:

I STRONGLY OBJECT to the proposed development plan. This area has been previously rejected for planning, as Conwy Local Development Plan; Deposit Plan 2007-2022 details. Previous reasons for rejection states "The development would extend into open countryside and would be harmful to the appearance of this landscape. The demand for housing can be met by other proposed sites in more sustainable locations". These reasons remain valid and applicable, in addition to the reasons I have highlighted above. Furthermore, the area adjacent to Peulwys Estate has already been granted permission to build a significant number of additional Cartrefi Conwy houses, therefore this should be considered more than enough sustainable development for such a small area.

Representation Summary:

Area cannot withstand development due to lack of infrastructure and facilities. Safe roads cannot be made, surgery and schools are unable to cope. There will be additional burden on already busy and poor quality roads, in particular Coed Coch Road and the Old Colwyn roundabout. Turning out of Peulwys Lane into Llanelian is already dangerous at times. I am also concerned about drainage issues and effect on wildlife and habitat with loss of green belt.

Change suggested by respondent:

No development should be allowed in this area.

Representation Summary:

This will significantly increase the volume of vehicles using Llanelian Road and negatively impact on the already congested Marine roundabout. Other routes, Coed Coch Road, Peulwys Lane, both currently bus routes, are severely congested by parked vehicles. The T junction between Peulwys Lane and Llanelian Road is already hazardous.
Pupils walking to the various schools in the immediate vicinity need to cross these already busy traffic routes and will be exposed to more risk.
The proposal will lead to further degradation of Doctor's services.
The difficulties presented by this site will disproportionately impact on the existing settlement of Old Colwyn.
