Local Plan 2040 Draft Plan - Strategy options and draft policies consultation
Representation ID: 5033
Received: 02/09/2021
Respondent: Mrs Caroline Romans
Option 2c is supported but options 2a, 2b and 2d are objected to. It is difficult to see how the level of development can be delivered in options 2a and 2b and 2d with sufficient strategic transport infrastructure to support this south of Bedford. Option 2d risks the eventual coalescence of urban development along the Lower Ouse Valley all the way to better located new settlements either side of the A1. Option 2c could deliver the required growth with two distinct urban centers with better strategic transport options.
