Concerns the transport of materials and people to the site during construction and after. Increasing HGV traffic on the A12 and minor roads is unsustainable. The Wickham Market vehicle park is a particular problem as it will feed traffic onto the A12 where it becomes single lane and is an accident risk. More traffic through Wickham itself would cause enormous congestion because of rich points at entry and exit. EDF has not taken account of public concerns about road use. Far more needs to be done about prioritising rail and sea transport to the site. The impact on residents and tourism on our coast would be deleterious and offset any economic value of this development.
