I object to the proposed development at Weycock Cross, Barry, due to unresolved flood risks and drainage issues indicated in the developer’s own strategy. Some areas are already prone to surface water flooding and watercourse flooding, with residents experiencing flooding in their gardens. There is no proper hazard assessment. Additionally, noise, vibration, pollution, and light pollution from the development will negatively impact residents, amenity, property, and the environment, especially affecting nocturnal species and the natural corridor.
I object to the proposed development at Weycock Cross, Barry because the developer’s own Preliminary Drainage Strategy shows that the site has major flood risk and drainage problems that have not been resolved. Certain areas of the development land are already at risk of surface water flooding and NRW flood mapping shows local watercourse flooding within parts of the developable area. Several residents already experience flooding into their gardens, and fear that any increase will compromise their homes. There is no proper assessment of hazard rating.
Noise, vibration and pollution are already at unacceptable levels for those facing the congested roads. Light pollution from a new housing delopment will adversely affect nocturnal species that cross this corridor. This development will most definitely result in an unacceptable impact on people, residential amenity, property and the natural environment.
