Q1a. To what extent do you agree / disagree with the proposed vision?

Strongly disagree

Q1b. Please explain your answer to Q1a:

The proposed footpath and cycleway adjacent to Wainscott Primary School is unacceptable. Introduces too much of a safeguarding risk for the school and children. It runs directly past the forest school setting (which the school children love and make great use of). It is a secluded area and this footpath / cycleway invites predatory behaviour towards the children using the setting. I find it astonishing that the council would even consider this an option - it is self-evidently a bad idea and should be removed from the proposal. The safety of the school children must be given the highest priority here.

Q2. Please tell us what you think about any aspect of the proposed key principles.

Principles are fine however you should introduce a 5th related to safety and more specifically safety of children.

Q3a. To what extent do you agree / disagree with the Overall Framework Plan?

Strongly disagree

Q3b. Please explain your answer to Q3a:

I cannot agree with a plan which places children at risk by introducing the footpath / cycleway adjacent to Wainscott primary school. Whoever thought that this was a good idea is seriously mistaken and massively misjudging public opinion.

Q4. Please tell us what you think about any aspect of the proposed neighbourhoods.

N/A

Q5. Do you have any other comments?

Remove the footpath / cycleway from adjacent to Wainscott primary school and i would have no objection to the proposal at all. Everything else looks fine. The footway / cycleway is a ticking timebomb and issue waiting to happen. Someone needs to see sense here and have it removed.
