The implications would be horrendous! The roads are so small and short and busy as it is. The road cracks and develops lots of holes already with the lorry’s at weesenham lane Wisbech never mind if this was built and the increased amount. It would cause traffic Jams and slow moving traffic. This could potentially cause more accidents as it’s a small built up area. I am a police officer in Peterborough and there seems to be more accidents in built up heavy traffic areas so with this being built in Wisbech the crime rate could increase and less people would by as we as businesses. Again this impacting the population. People would move out of Wisbech and less people would move in. This could have a community and culture impact. I commute daily to Peterborough using the main road on Cromwell road , weesenham lane and the road heading to morrisons a47. These roads are all going to be highly effected if this is built. I leave an hour early to get to my station on time however with this I will have to leave another half hour on top most days if not everyday. This becomes impossible when fatigued after shift and the fuel cost. Who’s going to assist with more fuel cost? The time? The wear and tear to my vehicle for poor roads and longer use? I thinks it’s disgusting and outrageous that it would even be considered to be placed in a small town when you have kings Lynn , Peterborough and other surrounding cities and big areas to place it. I for one will not be staying in wisbexh if it happens. It upsets me as Wisbech has become a lot nicer town, I grew up here as did my family. It has so much potential and this would and is ruining it. It needs to stop and someone needs to sit back and think logically. This is going to effect me and my wife as she commutes as [redacted] to March. I hope this is reconsidered as soon as possible.
