I appreciate homes are needed but this should never be at the detriment of this wild life. Never has it been so important as now to protect our environment and have green space to excercise freely in. I feel so sorry for the local residents and I can't imagine the strain it will put on the schools, doctors, roads and so on. A sad read.

We are close to gridlock on many occasions in the area and massively so at Worrygoose Island. The lower end of Worrygoose Lane is an accident black spot now so will only serve to exacerbate this problem. The negative effect on the environment, flooding, pollution, nature etc is a big worry. Why so many? Use the town centre before considering green spaces surely?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3199919321583468611.post-57104070092739509222020-01-06T10:57:43.005+00:002020-01-06T10:57:43.005+00:00Yet another green breathing space and food product...Yet another green breathing space and food production site allowed to go ahead.<br />Along with nature, many people visit this area for dog walks or a breath of fresh air.<br />Instead we will have more pollution with Worrygoose island becoming like Whiston crossroads, <br />with backing traffic into other areas.<br />Not to mention trucks and cars who use Bawtry Road as a short cut when the motorways are busy or blocked<br />Another lost Green space - why can’t we have what London has more parks for people...Nigel Simpsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3199919321583468611.post-34166907814307543662019-12-29T03:04:31.993+00:002019-12-29T03:04:31.993+00:00Birds nest in UK from late February (mistle thrush...Birds nest in UK from late February (mistle thrush) to October, so the window for hedgerow distruction is limited.

This comment is not relevant outside the breeding season when hedgerow removal works are likely to take place!

I live on worry goose lane & at peak commute times ie work & school times the road is already heavy & often stood with traffic inc cars,buses & hgv vehicles. Leading i would believe to severe levels of exhaust fumes,which considering there are two schools in the area & a fairly high level of elderly residents in the area i don`t understand the logic of further congestion & poisonous gases in this area,so i would object vigorously to this development. <br />.

The increase in traffic would cause more air pollution and make our roads even more dangerous for our children not to mention the strain on our local schools, doctors, dentists and other local amenities. <br />As for landlords and rentals I would prefer affordable housing if this went ahead so real people could afford to live there and not just people with money making more money from the less fortunate. All in all I think this project is a terrible idea and I am completely against it.

As a potential first time buyer myself, I have been following this area of land for a while and I am very excited to see what will be developed here. In regard to the social housing, there will be allocated plots for this, but who wants a whole estate of social housing, it would really decrease the value of Whiston and Wickersley as a whole! Fair enough have some houses, but an entire estate would be like Beirut on a bad day!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3199919321583468611.post-13393210456080716932019-04-21T16:22:16.494+01:002019-04-21T16:22:16.494+01:00Are you wanting to check bank accounts before peop...Are you wanting to check bank accounts before people move in Sumonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582005919079601345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3199919321583468611.post-68303175356122358952019-04-21T06:51:34.186+01:002019-04-21T06:51:34.186+01:00Infrastructure wobbling now, why build on attracti...Infrastructure wobbling now, why build on attractive green belt with valuable arable use to disappear.wildlife will suffer and habitats will be damaged.
