Access will be via the Ampthill Road/Eastville Road signalised junction already used for access to Morrisons and Aldi. Although this is a large junction given the scale of the development further assessment is required. A new junction for secondary access could be beneficial to lessen the burden. There is moderate traffic congestion in the area which could be impacted by this scale of development. There are several bus stops along the Ampthill Rd frontage of the site where the number 2 bus provides three services per hour, and less frequent services are provided by the number 44, 68 and 42 buses. There is a wide and well-paved pavement running along the Ampthill Road frontage in addition to a bus lane which is signed for use by cyclists. Further assessment should be undertaken of the impact of the proposed development on the existing Ampthill Rd/Eastville Road junction. Consider including a secondary vehicular access point to lessen the burden on the existing junction.
concerns include rail noise, commercial activity to north including supermarket and EMR
Site suitable for allocation potentially along with site 436 to the south (Technology House) for a mix of residential and business uses.
