Representation ID: 767

Received: 27/10/2023

Respondent: Mrs Amanda Barnes

Representation Summary:

Development of Capstone Valley potentially joining Medway with Maidstone (Lidsing) is unacceptable. The road networks cannot to cope, pushing more cars along Hempstead Road, Chapel Lane, past HVSC and onto the M2 will cause gridlock. Roads cannot cope any changes to the layout is not possible due to constraints. This has been investigated over the years with expansions of HVSC it is just not possible. Tree belt along field margins will be affected by development, negative impacts on wildlife, climate change etc. Wrong location for housing.
