Representation Summary:

The plan for Gibraltar corner is sited on a particularly dangerous bend, siting a school and large residential area on this junction will hinder traffic which has to transit to get to Kempston woodend. Development at the western side of the A428 does not seem like a suitable plan when development has taken place all along the east side of the bypass upto Clapham. Some rural area should remain.
