Croft is a small community of nearly 900 homes with limited facilities. It has a scanty and declining bus service. The site is 5km from both Birchwood and Padgate Railway Stations so even rail travel would generate traffic.
Local roads are busy and almost all trips from / to OS1 are car based.
I feel this allocation of a minimum of 75 homes in a village with only nearly 900 homes is unsound because the site makes a major contribution to Green Belt purposes. The proposed allocation would neither increase housing choice nor support the vitality and viability of local services.
The access from a B road onto the site by Abbey Close and Deacons Close a small estate is totally not acceptable.
The village has a flood problems on a regular basis and this will only make it worse.
