500 homes in each of Bromham, Clapham, Great Barford and Sharnbrook in the current Local Plan is too high and should be reduced to 250 in each village as the road network will not be able to cope. In addition, Bedford BC has exceeded the previous Local Plan target of 970 homes p.a. and the Inspector has confirmed that the overbuild can be taken forward into the next Plan.
