Proposed Crematorium off Shetcliffe Lane

We the undersigned petition the council to review its decision to name a site off Shetcliffe Lane as the preferred location of a new crematorium.

The proposed location will increase traffic on the already highly congested Tong Street and on surrounding roads that will not be suitable for higher volumes of traffic. Poor transport links will make it difficult for mourners to get to funerals on time which will cause them great distress.
The increased traffic will further increase journey times and further reduce air quality in the surrounding area, which will damage businesses, peoples health and the quality of local peoples lives.
This comes on top of existing opposition to plans to build a large number of new houses on greenbelt in this and surrounding areas.
