We would look to meet or exceed the energy standards set out on the building regulations as expressed in section 51s in the local plan. We would achieve this by utilising renewable energy sources such as solar and wind, as well as installing ground source heat pumps and additional water saving measures.

Access could be from several points along the frontage on Willington Road. Willington Rd sometimes has moderate traffic. There is a bus stop directly outside the site providing 4 services per day to Bedford, however there is another stop within 300m with the 73 bus providing a service to Bedford approx. every 30 minutes. There is a pavement along the frontage of the site, however it is very narrow. There is no specific cycle connectivity however cycling towards the A421 via Cardington connects to a traffic-free cycle route on the edge of Bedford taking you towards the centre. Consider using the development as an opportunity to widen the existing narrow pavement along the frontage of the site.

The site is located on the south side of High Street in the village of Pavenham approximately 6 miles northwest of Bedford town centre. Access to the site is feasible via High Street. There is no significant traffic congestion on High Street. The closest bus stop is located 900m east of the site on Weavers Lane. No footway serves the site. Cycling is possible on-road. A Transport Assessment will be required to identify the impact of traffic and satisfactory facilities for both pedestrians and cyclists. A footway in the frontage of the site would be necessary. A bus stop closer to the site would be a beneficial sustainable transport measure.

We would look to meet or exceed the energy standards set out on the building regulations as expressed in section 51s in the local plan. We would achieve this by utilising renewable energy sources such as solar and wind, as well as installing ground source heat pumps and additional water saving measures. In Addition to these measures ensuring that the dwellings are very well insulated throughout will further reduce the carbon footprint.

W boundary New Road. Unclear application: no precise address, responses few and vague. No footway serving the site, public transport options are within 1.2km but are not accessible. Pedestrain access not feasible, site would require vehicular access over pedestrian given the location and proposed land use.

Nothing chosen

no objections to employment use

Site does not fall within the boundary of a MSA.

This is not a preferred location for an employment site as it would be intrusive in the countryside and is not prominently visible from the strategic highway network.
