I wish to object to the Change of allocation for the land on Gill Banks, Ulverston
My main objection is that if this land was developed for housing it would lead to increased traffic flow in the area. This would be an absolute nightmare as traffic is already a problem at the Mill Street/Kings Street junction, at the pinch point in Mill Street and the blind spot at Union Lane/Stanley St due to increases caused by the health centre and due to be further increased by the Hoad View development. I believe it is totally unsustainable and potentially lethal.
Furthermore this area is a very popular walk, easily accesible by all members of the community, it is an increasingly rare green lung and would be devastated by this development with knock on effects on wildlife (bats and owls) and real fears over increased flooding risk, as your own preliminary report pointed out.
This land is not suitable for development and should not be reassigned.
Karen Stack
It is completely inappropriate and I urge you to remove it from
