Representation ID: 16194

Respondent: Cllr Victoria Harvey

Representation Summary:

I support the layout of the streets, the hierarchy and the the need for buildings to overlook pedestrian paths and cycleways. Poundbury is an excellent example of this.
800m is a long way from a bus stop. It is important to have fast direct buses that are on key routes and maybe a a distance of 800 metres away, however provision has to made for buses for the more infirm. Carrying a heavey bag of shopping 800metre can be impossible for many people.
