Paragraph 16
Flawed Consultation – Time limited to Summer Holiday period is far from ideal.
-ONS presents unjustified growth for Bedford
-Conflict/additional demands of Ox-Cam. Arc and EW Rail – Why is there no joined-up thinking?
-Inconsistency
-Lack of clarity – Options is etc are buried deep within the paperwork.
PARAGRAPH 3.1 – Far too many houses in one of the smallest counties
-No surety that houses will be built to meet local needs.
PARAGRAPH 3.15 – Object to Dennybrook (coloured brown in original consultation)
This is NOT brown but green-open space. Arable land.
Object to 2d – 421 corridor will spill out into Renhold even though Renhold is not included at this stage.
Object to 1a – Urban sprawl will affect rural nature of Renhold.
Support 2a – Rail growth development to South of Bedford.
EWR to the North of Bedford gives residents in Renhold nothing – other than loss of open countryside.
