OBJECTION to housing development suggestions for , and Chawton Park

Tue 15/10/2019 20:58 To: EHDC - Local Plan Dear Council

I am writing to OBJECT to the suggestions for 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 delivered more than its fair share of the housing quota for East . For the last 15 years we have had ongoing building developments and we have now reached the point where the village infrastructure cannot cope with what is currently built.

The country roads and bridges are not wide enough to safely support the current volume of traffic, 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 additional infrastructure that it has 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 it already has to deal with.

Northbook Park and Whitehill have already been recommended by EHDC as the 2 sites - these areas have land to regenerate, why try to saturate already over developed villages like Four Marks and Medstead when there are more appropriate sites such as those mentioned above available and requiring development.
