Greater Norwich Local Plan Gypsy and Traveller Sites Focused Consultation

Representation ID: 24742

Received: 04/03/2023

Respondent: Mrs Samantha Harrowven

Representation Summary:

Not a pleasant place to reside - right next to 70mph roads, with high death tolls. Dangerous for children and high risk of noise pollution. They’ll be disruptions for years as construction of the new road layout takes place, which will surround this site. It is not sensible timing. Also, this area doesn't connect to any main routes in or out of Norfolk, that’s why we’ve never had any gipsies or travellers in our vicinity. They won’t want to be here, ask them what they’d rather do. Answer: Expand sites that are convenient locations and where they are already happy!
