34 VISION FOR ICKFORD : ICKFORD NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN CONSULTATION REPORT

104 I don’t want to see the proposed housing developments going ahead.
We need a lot more time to discuss this. It has been rushed through
and the questions about why that happened need to be discussed
before any decision is made about housing developments in our
village.
105 Ensuring adequate parking, particularly for school. This would help
with extra traffic through the village. If the school development goes
ahead, this will lead to extra staff and more cars. The car park cannot
cope now. When the carpark was built at the same time as the pre
school building, two spaces in the car park were allocated for pre
school workers, that does not happen now and during the day, it is
gridlock with parked cars on the road, they need to make provision
for staff and visitor parking during the day now and in the future.
106 Maintained roads. New pumping stations for the sewers.
107 None.
108 Mains gas. Turnfields will become dangerous if it is the only access
road to any developments at the end of the road. The sewerage
already struggles to cope with the existing houses. Any additional
houses would affect the pipework further.
109 Upgrading of the drainage system, resurfacing of roads.
110 Thames Water to sort out flooding.
111 Upgrade to drainage and sewerage.
112 Sewage needs to be upgraded.
113 Upgrade of current sewage and foul water drainage. Implementation
of flood prevention measures. Improvement to road system (already
dangerous around Sheldon and Bridge Roads at peak school times).
School would need to increase in size (planning permission already
requested for 3 additional class rooms).
114 I just hope one of the developers will aid us in solving the surface
water issues.
115 Road improvement. Flooding issues . The developer to help with cost
of improvements needed for the village.
116 Uprated utilities – all of them – considerable improvement to dealing
with waste water especially for Church Road, Sheldon Road corner if 155
new homes are approved – all new large scale sites required to install grey
water systems – broadband maybe BT need to get their act together and
upgrade.
117 SEE AS ABOVE. IMPROVED PARKING FOR SCHOOL
ACTIVITIES INCLUDING CHILDREN PARENTS DROP-OFF AND
COLLECTING POINTS.
118 Replacement of sewerage system. Overhaul and improvement of
drainage system.
119 Car park for all school traffic.
120 Access from Shabbington Road rather than close to the village. Buffer
zone with landscaping behind Worminghall Road properties so the
development does not impinge as much on views from back gardens.
No streetlights.
