Dear Development Plans Manager,
I am writing to voice my concern regarding the further developments of the Union Lane fields. I have been informed that considerations are being made for access to the new developments on Union Lane fields via the end of Mowings Lane. This is extremely worrying as the steepness of the road is clearly not conducive to supporting an increase in the volume of traffic, and particularly not large and heavy goods vehicles. During the cold months the road regularly freezes, making it treacherous and often impassible to residents. Indeed, part of the road is single track, and is fit for purpose only to serve as access for the properties at the top of the road.
The new developments will also increase the flood risk to other residents in Ulverston and require the removal of valuable wildlife habitats. Noise pollution will also increase in the surrounding areas.
Please consider my views,
Regards,
Rob Wheeler
