I suspect that the majority of people moving into the area will unfortunately not speak Welsh thus the percentage to speaking Welsh as opposed to those not speaking Welsh will decrease.

My objections refer to the village of St Athan and its proposed overdevelopment - The village has limited infrastructure two doctors surgeries which are full to capacity with existing patients, a school which apparently is full and struggles to take on any additional children three shops but it is proposed to add 1100 houses over possibly 7 building sites. This means an additional 1500 -2000 vehicles on the already narrow and congested roads some of which were built for horse and carts not large motorcars. We do not have a railway station or a regular half hourly bus service.
Whilst I accept the principal of sustainable growth, there are limited employment opportunities. People will need to travel out of the area for work (Cardiff, Barry, Bridgend etc) which means extra vehicles on the roads causing congestion, especially at the monument entrance to St Athan.
The section of planning relating to the Church Farm site needs to be addressed the entrance to and from the site via Gileston Road is totally unacceptable - this site should be a cul de sac the entrance to be near the Four Cross Service Station.
