This Council needs to have regard to the effect on existing road infrastructure that future housing development may have. In particular, alternatives may need to be offered were significant traffic currently passes through residential areas. Future development in these areas could lead to unbearable traffic through these existing residential estates.

An example is Parklands Road to Oldcourt Road / Oldcourt Lawn. Currently, significant traffic is forced through the estates of Oakdale, Beechdale and Ferncourt. If future development is allowed off Oldcourt Road these estates are going to see significant increases in traffic levels. The Council should come up with alternative routes, where possible, before authorising large scale future developments.
