Increase of traffic on the A444, this road is already over capacity and it not fit for purpose being less than 6.7 mtrs in many place. Loss of good agricultural land, food security is vitally important to the UK. Whilst I understand energy security is also as important, the need to put solar farms in rural areas is nonsensical. At Jct 11 there is a 358 acre commercial site, massive roof space with no solar panels in site. Similar in Swadlincote.
