A PIECEMEAL development of 30-40 homes is being proposed here in Cowleigh, Malvern.

We have reached the second proposal, and another token consultation is being undertaken by the developers.

Traffic issues were a major part of the objections to the first proposal.

Only one of the six traffic issues appears to have been addressed by the planners. Perhaps because of the lack of input from the highways department.

The current 'consultation' shows no acknowledgement of the other potential problems.

They go unanswered and unacknowledged, making any planning process a nonsense.

If the problem is that our highways department is unable to get involved, surely we need the staff there to do the job.

Without them untold problems will arise as a result of this frantic period of piecemeal development.
