The existing access point on Rushden Road is suitable and a new access on Podington Road could also be achieved. Moderate AM and PM traffic congestion occurs on Rushden Road, Podington Road and High St. This should not be significantly exacerbated by 5 additional dwellings. The width and state of the footway varies along the perimeter of the site. Generally good enough for pedestrian connectivity and possibly prams. Some improvements could be implemented.
