Respondent: Jennifer Dunlop

Representation Summary:

As a resident of Woodland View in Stratton Strawless I am horrified at the proposal for gravel and sand extraction from our lovely local woods. Not only would it be awful to destroy the woodland, it would make our lives here noisy and the traffic on the main A.140 so much worse.

At present we have great difficulty crossing this road to get to the bus stop on the other side. This pedestrian crossing is at present very dangerous especially as a large proportion of our residents are retired and quite a number in their eighties!

I have been living here for over 30 years and my present peaceful life here would be considerably affected by this proposal. I strongly object to it from every point of view.
