Q. Why have you routed traffic to some houses through Duchy Close? The hammerhead turning point at the top of Duchy Close will then be lost. This is now used for parking as there is not enough parking already in Duchy Close. 8 new houses will be at least 16 cars plus visitors. There won't be enough space.

A. Firstly, we have attempted to partly integrate the new development with Duchy Close to follow the "Manual for Streets" document NDP-0162. Of course this is only an indicative design and we could re-route the road to avoid Duchy Close if this is perceived to be a major problem. Secondly, we have added the number of parking spaces recommended by the design manuals and local councils.
