The proposed scheme will address climate change through appropriate adaptation and mitigation measures in the design. Where possible the dwellings will utilise low carbon building materials. The dwellings will be energy efficient and will be designed for comfort by balancing passive cooling design strategies which maximise comfort and minimise energy use during the warmer summers, with adequate levels of insulation for the warmer winters. The dwellings will be constructed so they are weather tight, robust enough to withstand extreme weather, and with foundations which are appropriate for their lifetime. The design will also include measures for water efficiency and effective drainage.

The site is located on the South West end of The Lane, near the Roxton Road junction, on currently agricultural land between Top Farm and Elstow Drive in the village of Wyboston approximately 10 miles north-east of Bedford town centre. It is to be converted to residential properties as part of the development. Access is provided via The Lane, an adopted and unclassified single carriageway and much of it is 30mph in speed limit. The carriageway width of The Lane varies but is generally between 5.0m to 6.5m without any footway outside the site either side and without street lighting. As part of a scheme from Highways England to improve the A428 between Black Cat and Caxton Gibbet, the junction between The Lane and the A1 will be closed off and a new link road constructed connecting to the A1, providing a new safer access via Roxton Rd roundabout. There is no dedicated cycle route in the vicinity, but Roxton Road is showing as a bicycle-friendy route. The closest bus stop is right next to the site with 112 Ivel Sprinter stopping twice a day heading to St Neots / Biggleswade. A Transport Statement would be needed to assess the cumulative impact of the development on the local highway network. Improvement of pedestrian and cycle access would be needed - provision of a footpath and designated cycle path. Potential to link to footpaths further east along The Lane.
no noise concerns due to housing at fronatage of home farm
The site has been excluded from further assessment at Stage 1 because its location is not in accordance with the development strategy.

Number of dwellings not specified. Access is intended from Shrubbery Lane. B660 generally has low levels of congestion, except for sporadic moments of delays. There is no public transport in the area. There are no bike trails or routes in the site's vicinity. The existing access on Sunderland Hill would be suitable, but the intent is to move the access location to Shrubbery Lane, which would require work. The road is narrow with no footways, but lawn strips on both sides <1m, which could potentially be paved, but this would most likely be unfeasible.

The site is located on the east side of Ravensden Road in the village of Ravensden approximately 3.5 miles north of Bedford town centre. Access to the site is feasible on the southwest corner via Ravensden Road. There is no significant traffic congestion on Ravensden Road. The nearest bus stop is located approximately 200m south of the site. There are no footways serving the site, nor cycle track. Cycling is possible on-road. Depending of the proposed number of homes, a Transport Statement will be required to identify the impact of traffic and recommend satisfactory facilities for both pedestrians and cyclists. A 2m footway in the frontage of the site is necessary. An informal pedestrian crossing to tie into the existing footway is advised.

Access is dependent on a live application (19/02194/MAO) requiring demolition of an existing residential property. A search of the Bedford planning portal indicates that this was refused in Oct 2020, however appeal could occur and access was not one of the reasons for refusal at the time. There is moderate congestion in the area during peak times, which this development would contribute to. The closest bus stop is 450m North on Hookhams Lane, with bus line 27, which offers service of 1 bus per hour. A shared cycle route is just 160m south of the site entrance. Footway would require widening and improving to meet required standards. Connection should be provided to shared cycle path to the south of the site.
access road noise consideration would need to be made

The site is a Greenfield site and located on the south side of Keeley Lane opposite properties 62a – 72 Keeley Lane in the village of Wootton approximately 6 miles south-west of Bedford town centre. It is adjacent to 414 / 537 and 603. The development only contains residential properties and on it's own unlikely to generate much traffic, however likely cumulative impacts with other proposed developments in the area. Access from the site would be from Keeley Lane, a narrow (5--5.5m width) single carriageway road with speed limit of 30mph, footway on the north side and grass verge with ditch along the site border. Keeley Lane is also a quiet, bicycle-friendly road but no designated cycle routes are in the vicinity. Nearest bus stops are 550m away on Wootton Road, with buses operating 4 times per hour. The footpath would need widening, and either a new footpath along the southern side facing the site established or pedestrian crossing to the northern side. A Transport Assessment would be required to understand the impact on the local highway network as together with the other nearby sites in the vicinity, significant traffic generation can be expected.
no noise concerns
The site has been excluded from further assessment at Stage 1 because its location is not in accordance with the development strategy. The site is allocated for residential development in the Wootton Neighbourhood Plan Policy W4.

Proposed access is off the new road that is currently used solely for accessing Lidl, a slight reconfiguration of the road may be needed here to accommodate the new site. This provides access to the A4280 dual carriageway via an existing signalised junction. There is moderate traffic congestion on some local roads, however the main arterial roads serving the development (the A4280 and A421) have manageable traffic levels. Given the size of the site and the unknown scale of the development proposed, further assessment should be undertaken.There is a bus stop 250m from the site entrance where the number 5 bus provides five services per hour. There is a pavement on the road where the proposed access is which leads to a signalised pedestrian crossing across the A4280, where there is then a shared cycle/pedestrian path. Given the uncertainty over the scale of the proposed development, a Transport Assessment will likely be required to assess the impacts on surrounding networks. A slight reconfiguration of the access road may be required - the best option would be to continue the road directly into the site and make a give way junction for the Lidl access.
road noise from A4280 and noise from industrial units immediately to south of road
The site is within flood zone 3 and is therefore not suitable for residential development. The site is not a preferred location for employment development because alternative sites are better located.
