The proposed development of this site in the Thaw Valley directly contradicts the Welsh Government’s commitment to protecting Special Landscape Areas. The location has very limited public transport provision, meaning the development would inevitably lead to a significant increase in private car use. Residents would likely rely on cars not only for commuting but also for everyday needs such as shopping, leisure, healthcare, and social activities in the town, placing additional pressure on local roads.
In addition, Cowbridge and Llanblethian Town Council unanimously opposed the inclusion of this site in the RLDP. As the body responsible for the Cowbridge Placemaking Plan, the council is best placed to understand the town’s needs and future development priorities, and its clear opposition should be given considerable weight.
Please see below my reasoning for the objection of the inclusion of site 370 in the RLDP. Please can this be logged as an official objection.
