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

Representation ID: 3984

Received: 29/08/2021

Respondent: Mrs Sharon Woolmer

Representation Summary:

The proposed Dennybrook development is fundamentally flawed in so many ways.
The current infrastructure is already inadequate with no mains sewerage, inconsistent electrical supply, very poor broadband & mobile phone connectivity.
Environmentally it will cause massive disruption to small local lanes, none can be widened without major impacts on local wildlife, farming & residents.
There are no public services, cars would be the only option which goes against Government policy.
The development would not benefit Bedford, St.Neots would be the natural choice for shopping etc.
There are much more suitable sites currently which for political reasons are being ignored.
