Renhold is a rural village. It is not part of Bedford and it does not want to be the sacrificial lamb in your attempts to put Bedford on the map.
We will have none of the gain and all of the pain if this application were to be successful.
You have clearly not thought things through...

Significant engineering and modification works will be required to the A4280 St Neots Road, the A421 slip roads, Water End and the link road between the two roundabouts and relevant access points.
This would result in the urbanisation of this part of the Parish, which is characterised by agricultural fields, waterways and lakes to the south; and limited built form - primarily in the form of modest houses and scattered agricultural buildings.
Please stop, reflect and find a more suitable location where there is infrastructure in place that can support this ambitious pipedream.
