Local Plan 2040 Draft Plan - Strategy options and draft policies consultation
Representation ID: 5261

Respondent: Mr Jetinder Dhaliwal
Because of the way that the council have recently represented their interests in another consultation (East West Rail), I find it difficult to see where the evidence for the Ox-Cam arc benefits will come to bear. This scale of this kind of developement has not been carried out previously and it is easy to say that there should be a significant swell of higher quality of jobs for the area and hence the improportionatly large demand on Bedford Borough when compared to other regions in the country. Housing won't be cheaper, so where will the people come from ?
