Medway Local Plan (Regulation 18, 2024)

Representation ID: 4008

Received: 08/09/2024

Respondent: Miss Rachael Selleck

Representation Summary:

You need to improve the infrastructure first. The majority of people in Medway live too far from their workplaces to cycle. With current road conditions and lack of safe cycling routes, relying on cars is often the only viable option. Investing in better infrastructure, such as improved public transport and safer cycling paths, is essential before expanding housing or increasing traffic. Until these changes are made, building more houses without addressing these fundamental issues will only exacerbate the problems of congestion and pollution, contradicting the goals for sustainable travel and reducing car dependency.
