Objec on to Large Site Development at Chawton Park Farm
10/10/2019 Mail - Woodgate, Jenny - Outlook Large sites - Chawton Park Farm - Objection Sun 06/10/2019 13:52 To: EHDC - Local Plan <[email protected]> Objecon to Large Site development at Chawton Park Farm The plans for this site fall short in many areas and go against EHDCs own guidelines regarding the choice of site. This is why the site was rejected as unsuitable in the original Land Assessment, which has since been changed. These are the key objecons: 1) There are significant issues with access. Vehicle access is clearly unsuitable at this locaon, in part due to the 280 homes to be developed on Lord Mayor Trealor’s land 200m to the east. Chawton Park Rd will see hugely increase traffic, especially as the development proposes no shopping and has few other amenies and the development is over 1.5km from Alton town centre. This Road will be prone to significant traffic at peak mes alongside an increase in accident risk. Perhaps more significant is the access to the south through the railway arch onto the A31. This will be the main access route for the 1200 homes and, with the average vehicles per home in 2018 being 1.4 (Department for Transport), this means an esmated 1680 vehicles or probably more in reality due to poor and expensive public transport (the 64 bus is the most expensive route in the enre UK) and the very rural locaon. There are properes either side of the road north of the bridge with 4m between them. This means that a single lane will be needed right up to the arch and will not be able to have migaon for increased traffic.

OBJECTION to Housing Development Suggestions for Medstead, Four Marks and Chawton Park
11/26/2019 Mail - Woodgate, Jenny - Outlook OBJECTION to housing development suggestions for Medstead, Four Marks and Chawton Park Tue 15/10/2019 20:28 To: EHDC - Local Plan <[email protected]> Dear Council I am writing to OBJECT to the suggestions of additional building within areas of Four Marks, Medstead and Chawton Park Woods. South Medstead, West of Lymington Boom Road South Medstead, Land South of Winchester Road, Four Marks, Four Marks South, Chawton Park Four Marks and Medstead has already significantly over delivered our fair share of the housing quota for East Hampshire. For the last 15 years we have had ongoing building developments and we now can not even cope with what we have. The country roads and bridges here can not support the volume of cars we have now, we have many more accidents in the village due to the volume of cars and the roads through from the A31 and the A339 are used as a rat run. Government inspectors have already said that Four Marks and Medstead need to catch up and get the missing infrastructure that we have been promised over the last 15 years. Chawton is a small population of 500 people and is a major historic tourist site, Chawton park also does not have any suitable road links to it that could sustain a higher volume of cars than we already have to deal with. Northbook Park and Whitehill Bordon have already been recommended by EHDC as the 2 sites - these areas have land to regenerate, why try to saturate an already saturated village like Four Marks and Medstead when there are more appropriate sites such as this available and requiring development.
