Medway Local Plan (Regulation 18, 2023)

Representation ID: 621

Received: 25/10/2023

Respondent: Mrs Daniela Baylis

Representation Summary:

The proposed Cuxton site is 19 hectares doubling the existing village. 1,600 cars exiting and entering the village during peak times would overwhelm the village causing large queues of traffic along Bush Road as they try to exit onto the A228. This already happens during the school run. Queues of traffic means a reduction in air quality. This site is wholly within the AONB and is protected metropolitan greenbelt. It is not sustainable, a 1.5 mile walk to train station/1 mile walk to nearest bus stop. Narrow road so no possible provision of a foot path or safe cycle route.
