I AM writing re the proposed North Site development. I cannot believe that both Worcestershire County Council and Malvern Hills District Council can show such a lack of vision and short sightedness to even believe the minor changes they propose will suffice for the huge amount of extra traffic this development will encourage.
Why should the residents of Newtown Road, Somers Park Avenue, Albert Park Road, Church Road and Lower Howsell be expected to bear this extra volume of traffic. These roads are already overcrowded with on-street parking. They were never built to cope with the traffic they have to contend with now, let alone another 600 to 1,200 vehicles a day.
Whatever they say it is obvious the only solution, other than cancel the whole project, is to build a new road. As usual none of these people live in the area, so will not be affected personally.
Build a new road or scrap the whole idea!
