The access roads to this site are not suitable for additional traffic. Neddy Hill and Tanpits Lane are residential roads, both are traditional village streets, they are narrow, with no footways or verges and have right angle bends and restricted forward visibility. We walk our children to school and the shops along these roads and any increase in traffic would be unacceptable in terms of pedestrian and traffic safety. The alternative route to the A 6 along Moss lane is a single track road with occasional passing bays and a less than 3metre height limit under the canal bridge.
I do not know what the drainage implications would be of developing this land but there are already problems with the sewers at Neddy Hill after heavy rain and there have been problems with the rising main from St James's Drive.
What change(s) would you suggest for this part of the Report?
Deletion of this proposed employment site to the west of Burton in Kendal.
Please use this space if you wish to set out a new option for consideration.
It is not clear how much consideration has been given to the relationship of the village to employment developments at Clawthorpe, Dalton Hall, Moss End and in Carnforth.
