- Increase in congestion

Full text:

The construction of 200 houses on KB4 land is totally impractical. Both Watton Road during rush hours and Swangleys Lane at school starting and finishing times are already impassable due to the volume of traffic using them. St Martins Road is a private, unadopted road that is also affected by school traffic from Swangleys Lane. As a resident in Swangleys Lane I already have to plan my travel times to avoid the school traffic. Additional congestion would make all these roads even more dangerous.
