Please add your response below, quoting the further proposed main modification reference number or relevant document title including reference to section / page / paragraph: (limit 3000 words)
It is my opinion that the further proposed development needs extremely careful consideration. The increased volume of traffic around areas such as the Health Centre and the area where Mill Street meets Soutergate, and King St, which is also joined by Fountain St and Church Walk would be unsafe.
As a Headteacher I feel the danger to children from increased traffic around this area to be unacceptable.
From recent visits to the Health Centre I am aware that the current volume of traffic up Stanley Street is already high. I would be concerned about the health and safety of our elderly residents too; those living on Stanley Street and Union Lane.
I also think the Mowings(Moigns) area of Ulverston may need to be protected as a conservation area as there are archeological questions that need throughly investigating. I am aware that this could be a very ancient site of habitation in Ulverston and would require a professional archeological survey before further building work is considered.
