I have made several attempts to view the Local Plan map and have found it incredibly difficult to both use and understand. As an 20 year IT professional I am not challenged by the use of technology but I find the map extremely slow to load (if indeed it does at all) and there is no key to the colour coding used, the interaction points give no information whatsoever and don't provide any details on what is proposed.

I feel that as a tool to explain what the Local Plan is proposing it woefully falls short of the expectation and does not comply with the legal requirement to provide the general public with sufficient information to make an informed decision nor does it comply with the council's Duty to Co-Operate. This is all before what I 'perceive' as being the Local Plan does not, in my opinion, form a sound overall plan although this understanding may be due to the poor amount of information provided or its obfuscated method of presentation.
