My objection to the proposal.
If an employment development such as this really is needed, there are many more sites which are more appropriate, particularly South of Bedford River.
The proposed site at Water End/Green End, Renhold is unsuitable, and is highly likely to encourage further development. It will almost join Renhold to Great Barford, and I believe that any farming land left between the 2 villages will soon be swallowed up for houses
There will be pollution from noise & light, and an increase in the air pollution.
Traffic numbers will increase, and so will the number of vehicles exceeding speed limits.
The loss of any farming land needs to be very carefully considered, and this land produces good wheat and grazing.
