I have concerns around the impact of the proposed growth on both ecological safety, e.g. aquifers & water supply, and on accessibility and congestion, as I already experience difficulty getting to and from Ninewells, due to road congestion. I understand the Ninewells nature Reserve, currently a wildlife haven and corridor to rare species, will become surrounded by urban growth, reducing public access to green space for fresh air and exercise. The green belt needs to remain this way, providing current level of access to Queen Edith population, and support sustainability of natural resources and wildlife access.
