Living close to the proposed Southern Park & Ride site I am concerned about the increase in traffic that will come through our village on single track roads without footways, by non-Sizewell traffic trying to avoid the bottleneck on the B1078 on either side of the River Deben bridge by Rackham’s mill. Our nearest shops are In Wickham Market and I am concerned that the disruption caused during the construction of Sizewell C will adversely affect the traders, as at present the village is a pleasant place for tourists and non-locals to visit. I am also very concerned about the increased traffic on all 3 directions at the Woods Lane roundabout. That section of the A 12 is already heavily congested throughout the day and particularly at rush hour, the school buses are frequently delayed, and the road is very tricky to cross for pedestrians and cyclists. There does not seem to be any effort made in the proposal to mitigate or reduce these problems in spite of these matters being raised at several public consultations.
