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

Representation ID: 5798

Received: 07/09/2021

Respondent: Mr Timothy Taylor

Representation Summary:

I would strongly support options 2a – 2d identified in your Local Plan 2040 along the A421 corridor and in particular option 2b.

However, I would strongly object to the inclusion of any new proposed development of garden village sites at Twinwoods and/or Colworth. The A6 north of Bedford is already extremely congested and any new proposed developments to the north of Bedford will only exacerbate this problem. In particular traffic passing through Milton Ernest in front of the primary school already creates a potential hazard to young children and their parents.
