I believe this development will increase traffic within the area, meaning increased commuting times, increased exposure to pollution which will impact quality of life. The restructuring of the natural habitat will have a negative impact on local wildlife. The removal of woodland will also increase pollutants in the air. There are already rail freights not that far from this area. In addition to the DPD and other warehouses that have recently been built, there is already a significant increase in traffic every morning and evening at rush hour and your every day average person who just wants to get home from work to have some quality family time is already wasting time sitting in unnecessary traffic, I believe this project will worsen this.
