I strongly object to the proposed housing development between Ryecroft Lane
and Pavement Lane due to its significant impact on local infrastructure and the
environment. The surrounding road network is already under pressure and lacks the
capacity to accommodate increased traffic, leading to congestion, road safety
concerns, noise, and air pollution. Local schools, GP surgeries, and other essential
services are stretched and would face additional demand. The development would also
result in the loss of greenfield land, harm biodiversity, fragment wildlife habitats, reduce
natural drainage, increase surface water runoff and flood risk, and weaken the rural
character of the area.

I object to the allocation of Land north of Town Lane, Mobberley for
development. This site lies within a sensitive rural area where significant development
would erode the village's character, openness and separation from surrounding
settlements. The proposal would place additional pressure on already constrained local
roads, increasing traffic, congestion and road safety concerns. Development of this
scale risks harm to biodiversity, hedgerows and wildlife habitats that contribute
to the local environment. Existing infrastructure, including schools, healthcare services
and utilities, may be unable to accommodate further growth. Priority should be given to
more sustainable brownfield locations before releasing countryside land.

I object to the proposed housing development at Land East/West of Pepper Street due
to the lack of infrastructure required to support substantial residential growth. Local
roads already experience congestion and would be unable to accommodate the
significant increase in traffic. Public transport provision
in the area is limited, with insufficient bus services and a lack of realistic alternatives to
private car use for commuting, education, healthcare, and daily activities. This reliance
on cars would worsen congestion and environmental impacts. Existing schools,
healthcare services, and community facilities are also under pressure, making the
proposal unsustainable without major infrastructure investment.
