This has
been covered piecemeal elsewhere:-
More people and cars
Less green grass and fresh air
Urbanisation
Pressure on local services
More traffic and noise early and late
Etc. Etc.
But there
would be an impact above and beyond the component parts. Chalfont Common
has a quality of life in its semi-rural setting that would become faster,
harder, less enjoyable. It's a bit difficult to put one's finger on, but
today's Chalfont Common is more pleasant and more attractive than the NSE's planned Chalfont
Common. This is true for the NSE's care residents and staff as much as it is for the local community.
Oh, and of
course the transition between now and then is unlikely to add anything
to the village character either. Except, perhaps, a blitz mentality during
the building works of the £125Million developments.
