2024

New homes will be built to the new 2020 Building Regulations likely to be in force by the time new Local Plan is adopted. The new regulations will reduce carbon emissions of homes by potentially up to 31% (compared to homes built to current energy efficiency requirements). To meet the new regulations, new homes will need to feature technology including photovoltaic (solar) panels, heat pumps, triple glazing and standards for walls, floors and roofs that significantly limit any heat loss. Electric vehicle charging points will be provided in accordance with standards.

? Potential capacity problem requiring mitigation

The site is located on the west side of Odell Road approximately 10 miles northwest of Bedford town centre in the Village of Harrold. There is no significant congestion in the vicinity, however this development may have a moderate impact on local networks. There are various access points from Odell Road, which is a 30mph speed limit road. The closest bus stop is located adjacent to one of the access points of the site. There is no footway outside the site but there is a footway of 1.4m width on the opposite side of the road. Cycling is possible by using Odell Road. The proposed development will require a road to adoptable standards in accordance with Bedford Borough Council's highway standards. A Transport Assessment will be required to identify the impact of traffic on Odell Road and Odell Road/High Street junction as well as satisfactory facilities for both pedestrians and cyclists. Consider marking on-street cycle lanes. A footway of 2m in width should be provided outside the site, or crossing provided to the footway on the opposite side of the road, to link with existing footway further south near the opposite junction with High Street.
