Why you consider the Draft Local Plan is not legally compliant or is unsound or fails to comply with the duty to co-operate

It is not sound on a number of levels:-
- The council ignore the Residents objections to the Plan
- The Plan shows access to the Peel Hall site as solely via Mill Lane, Houghton Green. There is a current planning proposal for approximately 1200 homes on this site. How would Mill Lane cope with the extra traffic generated from this proposal?
- Peel Hall has limited access via the current road infrastructure so why is it still included?
- Peel Hall was never considered suitable land to build on at the time when the Warrington New Town Development Corpration was formed in 1974. Its farm land.
- Is building houses right on the hard shoulder of one of the busiest motorways in the country a sound idea?
- At a time when the UK Government seems to waking up to the climate issues the council are continuing to keep the Peel Hall land in the Plan which is already an area of high air pollution due to the motorway traffic.
- The local Residents don't want thsi development.

Modification if applicable

Totally remove Peel Hall from the Local Plan.
