Access at several points along Barford Road. Some widening work on Barford Road would be necessary, as well as new junction infrastructure and highway works for access. There are low-frequency bus services approx 1km from the site at a nearby supermarket. The closest footway is approx 250m from the north of the site on Barford Rd and is narrow (approx 1m wide). Widening and new junctions for access on Barford Road. For improved pedestrian and cycle connectivity it would be necessary to connect to the existing footway (approx 250m away). Widening of the existing footway and conversion to cycle/pedestrian route up to the A428 roundabout would be suggested. This would allow cycle/pedestrian access to the supermarket, bus services and further into the town.
