Objection

I object to these plans as they are not in keeping with the character of Buxton. The traffic will only get worse if these plans go ahead and travelling into Buxton across the A6 is busy at the best of times. Local retailers will suffer such as Next and New look which are down for demolition. Parking will become difficult and as a regular Waitrose customer, I do not want to be pushing a trolley up to the station car park. Buxton is a spa town with many beautiful buildings, let's not spoil it with such a monstrosity!
