mowings lane Reference MM072U - Amend Development Plan Boundary to incorporate site RN193 in Ulverston
I wish to express my objections to the above proposals to include land off Gillbanks and Mowings lane for housing development. The initial decision to allow additional houses to be built off Union Lane was a mistake. To further increase the number of houses in this area would be a disaster. The access to this area is very poor. Stanley Street and the narrow road near to the Mill pub are already struggling with the number of cars using this route to the health centre. The access along union lane is still very narrow and the removal of the old workhouse wall has not helped the situation. This land is unsuitable for an intensive housing development and allowing it to take place would be a tragedy, with Ulverston losing another green space, especially one so key in regard to its location on the Cumbria Way. The safety of Ulverston residents should be a priority and allowing more housing in such a constrained space with very poor access would place lives at risk.
