Representation Summary:

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

I oppose continous development in our area due to the impact it will have on our surrounfing area, the increase in traffic, air and noise pollution and the density of the amount of properties that this will cause in the area.

Representation Summary:

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.

Respondent: Mrs CAROLINE BURGESS

Representation Summary:

At present this land acts as a divide between the villages of Bryn and Llangennech. If it is developed the 2 villages will become one.
The road between Llangennech and Bryn is already unable to cope with the volume of traffic. The village of Llandennech is gridlocked at peak times and accessing the M4 is a nightmare. People commuting to work via the M4 already have to allow extra time for their journey which has an impact on family life.
In addition, there are currently insufficient places at the local medical practice and schools.

Respondent: Martin Unwin

Representation Summary:

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.

Representation Summary:

I am in the process of purchasing a property at Maes Yr Bryn & am very concerned the property will decrease in value. If these plans go ahead I will also lose breathtaking views (one of the reasons I am purchasing the property). Other concerns of mine include disastrous consequences to wildlife, extra traffic going through the village, inadequate drainage, sewerage issues, insufficient infrastructure, access to residential areas, lack of healthcare (GP surgery being full to capacity) and insufficient/inadequate school places for my children. These proposals are very worrying & in my opinion would destroy the village of Bryn.

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.

This is a very or was green area which needs to be kept there already are 2 new developments which are still ongoing and are huge across the road which do already having a massive impact on trafficand sewerage systems there is no need for another big site in such a tiny area of 1/2 a mile it is not just about money making it's about green areas and keeping a balance well this would put the balance right out

There is inadequate infrastructure for education and healthcare to support an increase in local population. There are currently no school spaces. There is inadequate drainage and sewerage facilities for more homes. The road network is saturated.
This area is a red kite nesting area.
This would be a further reduction in the green belt which is socially unacceptable.

Representation Summary:

Road and infrastructure will not be able to cope. Llangennech village is already congested at most times of the day. Insufficient drainage and sewerage outlets in place. The development of this green belt land will result in the merger of Bryn and Llangennech villages resulting in the loss of community spirit and identity. It is also a Red Kite nesting and feeding ground

Respondent: Mr Mark Griffiths

Representation Summary:

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.

Representation Summary:

This proposed site is a red kite nesting and feeding ground and this would seriously endanger them. This is also the loss of green belt resulting in the merger of the villages Bryn and Llangennech. Traffic is a major issue as they will use this route as entry to M4 which is already a bottleneck and causes major issues through the narrow village of Llangennech.

Representation Summary:

This site 6.973 Ha is a very large area to develop, without the other residential proposals in this area. Overdevelopment of this scale would be detrimental to the countryside and wildlife here. As before, overcrowding on the local schools would be an issue. Aswell as the amount of traffic using LLangennech's already busy main road, to access the M4. Residential parking on one side of this main road, and grid locked on certain times of the day. 7,000 vehicles a day use this road without the possible influx of traffic from these developments. Immediate safety issues would occur.

Representation Summary:

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

Representation Summary:

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

Representation Summary:

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.

Representation Summary:

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.

Respondent: Mr Tim Morris

Representation Summary:

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 in the process of purchasing a property in Maes Yr Bryn and am very concerned about residential properties being build in the surrounding area. My concerns include access points to the residential properties and the road network being unable to cope with the extra traffic. I am also concerned about the pressures on the local hospital and two GP surgeries in the area which are already overstretched. Other concerns include insufficient school places in the local schools which are already full to capacity, inadequate drainage, insufficient infrastructure and the consequences to wildlife

Representation Summary:

This land is known to provide a nesting and feeding ground for red kites.
It provides a natural break between The Bryn and Llangennech. This development would merge the two villages. There is already a shortage of school places in the area. To get an appointment with a doctor is a lottery and the road system is inadequate. The land is adjacent to the brow of a hill and is blessed with traffic calming measures. This slows the traffic down which makes access on to the main road very difficult.

Respondent: Miss Alison Willock

Representation Summary:

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.

Respondent: Mr G CORNFIELD

Representation Summary:

Infrastructure:
The road is inadequate to cope with the increased volume of traffic. The village of Llangennech already has a raft of traffic calming measures, increasing the number of cars would negate this.
There are currently issues with low water pressure and there have been problems with the sewerage system not being able to cope with the volume of water run off. This contributes to flooding in the village of Llangennech.
Environmental:
By turning the farmland to residential use, water would run off instead of being absorbed into the ground. This increases the risk of flooding downhill from this development.
