Local Plan 2040 Draft Plan - Strategy options and draft policies consultation

Representation ID: 3617

Received: 16/08/2021

Respondent: Miss Mandy Wilson

Representation Summary:

I do not believe there should be any further building along the A6 corridor unless the road is dueled from Bedford to Rushden to take account of the 2800 plus houses being built in Rushden, plus 500 Sharnbrook, 500 Clapham and smaller amounts in rural services centres that all use the A6. In addition care needs to be taken about the unoffical northern bypass via Thurleigh/Ravensden and into Bedford- the road needs upgrading now, never mind when all the houses are built
