Respondent: Mr Robert Greene
Option 2 (d) proposes development along the A421 corridor. This will create a string of development to the new residential centres of Wyboston/Little Barford. The villages enroute will lose their individual characteristics and access to facilities will require even more journeys negatively impacting on the BBCs green ambitions. Further housing, in addition to the 2030 plan, around Great Barford in particular, with its 3 conservation areas calls into question what the purpose of designating conservation areas is if the Council's own planners ignore them. This village has ever more cars, poor public transport/other amenities to support the existing population.
