Stop the planning process of the proposed transport hub at whittinghame drive that will consist of a 240 space car park.This loss of green space will cause many a problems to the community.
Why is this important?
As a community we should be objecting to this proposal due to several factors which include
- the safety of the children who play in this area with the increase in vehicular movement
- noise and pollution next to the 3g sports facilities and skate park
- the loss of green space used for public events such as the shows, circus and fireworks etc all which bring the community together.
- increase in traffic flow over the Victoria bridge causing more congestion
- potential of traffic self diverting causing a rat race through the residential area
- adding to the surface water run off in an area already susceptible to flooding
- loss of green space which is beneficial to mental health and well being
- potential damage to the surrounding trees and wildlife
So please as a community help us fight against this proposal and save the green space at whittinghame drive used by many, from children to families and dog walkers.
