No Access Road on Castle Street Bodmin
In reference to the housing development adjacent to Castle Street in Bodmin, being built by Bunny Homes.
I object to the demolition of 51 Castle Street and the associated boundary, and I object to the construction of an access road onto Castle Street through this location.
I insist that the access road designed and constructed at Callywith College is used for entry to/exit from the Castle Street housing development.
I do not accept ‘stalled contract negotiations’ as a valid reason not to use the access route from Callywith College, and to instead demolish an existing home, destroy a hedge row, tear down a number of oak trees, and blight a neighbourhood of vulnerable residents with increased traffic.
The access road from Callywith College was designed and constructed specifically to provide access to a development on this site, and it must be used as such.
Why is this important?
There is a perfectly good access road from Callywith College that was built for the explicit purpose of providing access to this new development. This road currently sits unused.
The proposed access road from Castle Street however, will result in demolition of an existing home, currently housing a young family of 5 with disabled children. It will blight a neighbourhood of vulnerable residents with significantly increased traffic. And will cause avoidable and unnecessary environmental damage through the destruction of a hedge row, and the tearing down of oak trees.
