I am a resident of Pendderi Road and lived there for 15 years. We have already had to put up with hundreds of new houses opposite us making the roads incredibly busy, noisy and congested. Sewerage is also an issue, water retention and flooding. School applications are minimal as there are too many children in the catchment area now. I moved to this area as it was semi rural. It is quickly becoming a town at this rate. It upsets me greatly as I wanted to bring up my children in a quiet peaceful area. More dogs = faeces

Bryn has been developed extensively over recent years with significant developments either side of Penderry Road. This has already resulted in significantly higher traffic and congestion in the area, which will increase with these proposaks. There will be a considerable pressures placed upon the infrastructure, local schools and healthcare services, drainage and sewerage. I have recently witnessed several rats around the development on Penderry Road whilst running, and the road and surrounding area is an absolute mess.
Bryn is a beautiful area with considerable green spaces and wildlife. With these proposals CCC are turning it into a concrete jungle.

In the local area the roads are already congested, with the development of more housing road congestion will increase, leading to health issues and possible accidents.
There are no more available school places
Demand for medical services, including a doctor is high now and with additional homes being developed demand will increase.
The area is over developed now, there are few employment opportunities for the local area.
Local services, such as sewerage are stretched now. More housing will place even more pressure on services.
There is a potential for environmental damage which could affect local wildlife.

if you were to build on this land, it would have disastarous consequences for wildlife which has already relocated in recent years due to the area being built upon, such as bryn uchaf and the currenct site ( persimmon site) Sighting of bats in this area. this land has salways been green!
There is also insufficient infrastructure, our roads are max to capacity and also sewege! the system can't cope with any more homes!!!
The road network would not be able to cope with any extra traffic.
insufficient school places, lack of healthcare

There should be no more residential development in the Bryn area. The infrastructure is insufficient, healthcare support such as doctors surgeries are lacking, local schools are already at maximum capacity and people are having to travel out of the area for schools, there is already inadequate drainage in the lower village and flooding is frequent, the road network is already straining Especially the M4 junction, Wildlife and their habitat is constantly being displaced such as protected bat species.

There are inadequate facilities for healthcare and education. There are waiting list at doctors surgeries and schools. The road network will not be able to cope with an increase in housing. The local M4 junction is currently beyond saturation point. There are inadequate drainage and sewerage systems.
This development would have disastrous consequences for wildlife. Red kits nest in this area.

Proposals that could connect distinct villages is unacceptable, as you are coalescing urban development and losing individual village identity. Extensions to villages should therefore be located away from other nearby village boundaries.
If this site was to be developed it would create ribbon development along the B4297 which is at odds with existing landscape character and settlement patterns and may form barriers for ecology.
Bryn has been subject to a high volume of residential development with over 300 homes being built in the last 4 years, with the pressure that this has brought to bear on local infrastructure and services.

This is another area of green belt which if developed would also merge Bryn to Llangennech and cause chaos through a village already choking with vehicles, lack of parking for amenities such as shops, pharmacy and health centres. There is also a diverse number of wildlife who habit this land which are very important to our environment.

This site along with the next field SR/086/028 are both being proposed for residential housing, together 2.458 Ha, along the Pennllwyngwyn road. Together with SR/086/38 and SR/086/39 which are on the opposite side of the same Penllwyngwyn road, 8.410Ha, all in all 10.868 Ha. A very large area to consider for housing. talk about overdevelopment. The impact on this countryside, the appearance and effect on nature, on this scale, would be devastating. The local schools are already struggling with the number of children. To access the M4, using Llangennech's already very busy main road, 7,000 vehicles passing through every day.

I think all this housing which is being planned is appalling. There is total Insuffient/Inadequate Infrastructure in Llangennech/Bryn to manage this. Also the road network will be unable to cope with the traffic. A lot of this would come from the motorway and through the village there is parked cars and if it gets much busier there will be a tragedy at some point. It is very narrow and any extra vehicles to support all this housing is utterly wrong. This particular site is loss of narrow green belt resulting in the merger of the villages of Bryn and Llangennech

Having lived in Llanelli for 60 years and been a resident of Llangennech for the last 13 years the increased housing developments have put increasing loads on the local infrastructure. Our schools are at capacity, our road links are inadequate. The area is becoming a commuter satellite of Swansea/Cardiff which we cannot cope with. Future developments will only add to the problems. This is not only a problem with this proposed site but many in the Bryn/Bynea/Llangennech and Hendy areas. There is strong local objection to these proposals; you would have more objections if this procedure was more user friendly

Access to proposed area - through Penlan - road too narrow
Access off main road - another junction would have to be created. This would have to be before the brow of the hill on the hill. The road to and from Llangennech has already been narrowed by the introduction of cycle paths. These would have to be crossed to gain access. The volume of traffic through Llangennech would further increase - the main road is often reduced to single file due to cars parked on one side of the road. There is obviously a road safety issue.

SR/086/014 - Increase in traffic to and from, often, single file traffic through Llangennech. Another T junction in to the main road - there are already several quite close together and at times it is virtually impossible to join the main road and turning across the line of traffic impossible. There will be issues with sewage. Where will the extra children go to school? The increase in traffic will add to pollution on a road that has three schools. Cycle tracks introduced along the road with an abundance of speed bumps means traffic has meant that traffic speeds vary.

The roads in the area are not able to support an increase in traffic, the same applies to our schools, Doctor's surgeries and drainage systems.
Also the environmental consequences; the destruction of beautiful green space and damage to wildlife. There are brown/derelict sites in the County which need improving and could be used. The health implications on residents of increased traffic through our villages. I feel the need for extra housing is not in our area but in other parts of the Country, many houses are taking so long to be sold, this does not reflect a housing shortage here.

It will increase in the volume of traffic, at peak times there is already considerable congestion on Junction 48, which is just waiting for a fatal accident to occur, Given the existing developments in Carmarthenshire and the proposed developments in Pontarddulais and Hendy this will only exacerbate the situation. Has a joint traffic survey been carried out with Swansea Council with Junction 48 and other affected routes?
Where has the number of houses required come from?
Added pressure on an already over subscribed surgery, hospital services and schools.
Pressure on wildlife.
Loss of community identify especially Welsh language.

The Bryn Llangennech Bynea Llwynhendy communities should be kept as the distinct villages not a housing connurbation .e significant increase in housing in all the above means resources of schools, highways etc will be too stretched. Bad planning with ribbon development in the past on Penllwyngwyn Road stretching from Bryn towards Llangennech is no excuse for filling in land on Penllwyngwyn Farm. Penllwyngwyn Farm and its land does have bats and Barn Owls. The land provides a green corridor as well as giving a delightful view and green space contributing to the well being of residents and road users.

I am objecting to the proposed development based on the following:
The land between Cleviston Park and Penlan is a traditional "green belt" that is a natural border between the villages of The Bryn and Llangennech.
Additional housing on the Llangennech/Llwynhendy "corridor will provide an additional issue to the already inadequate infrastructure. Lack of school places. Lack of Healthcare practices. The road system is already inadequate - road calming measures and heavy traffic noticed over the last six months is creating slow moving traffic, on a hill where access to the site would be located.

The infrastructure is already under pressure after the building of Bryn Emrallt and now the Persimmon development. Junction 48 under Section 278, Highways Act 1980 will need significant improvement to manage the volume of traffic, as it is currently the only junction on the M4, which does not have a roundabout/traffic lights.
In addition, my neighbours have experienced raw sewage entering their property every time it rains, as a direct result of the additional houses (acknowledged by the building firm). The systems are therefore unable to cope with the increased capacity and there are yet more houses in the offing.

Bryn Primary School is already overcrowded. There are pupils who have been forced to move classes due to the class sizes being too large. Additional homes in the area will exacerbate this problem. The infrastructure cannot cope with the demand as it is at the moment.

This site as others increases traffic congestion and increased air pollution. The infrastructure is inadequate at peak times, further traffic increases this problem. The schools are under pressure now further population increases this problem, the same applies to the surgery and Hospitals.
Where is there a limit to traffic and population. We are loosing our environment, the wild life is being pushed out, our green areas being reduced, the by removing the co2 balancing plants.

Site borders on long established quiet cul-de-sac , site is situated behind existing properties and does not front onto the main road. So access might be proposed through Penlan significantly changing character of the area, and vastly increasingl traffic.
Disastrous impact on current residents' enjoyment of their homes, as they back onto green fields. Unfortunately, properties are often packed in right up to the boundary of new sites with no regard for impact on existing properties. Large amount of new housing recently been built in this area, and more currently being built, so no need to use this site.
