*flooding of local roads - there is already a lot of flooding around local roads when it rains. If more farm land is taken up as building less land will be available to soak up the water. *the traffic through Walton on Trent is already a nightmare at times. With the bridge at Alrewas with a weight limit more trucks are trying to go over the bridge at Walton or driving straight through Walton especially as there’s road works from HS2 on the a5 and the a38 which would be their alternative route from tamworth. *other placements of solar panels should be considered - such as on the roof of existing building - the new houses up at dracan village could be built with solar panels on their roof.
