The council has declared a climate emergency. How the proposal will respond to climate change

The site is well located to existing development placing less dependency on vehicle movements and greater opportunities for walking, cycling and use of public transport. Development will take account of landform, layout, building orientation, massing and landscaping to minimise energy consumption, including maximising cooling and avoiding solar gain in the summer. Overall, it will be planned so as to minimise carbon dioxide emissions through giving careful consideration to how all aspects support opportunities for renewable or low-carbon energy supply. Development will give priority to the use of sustainable drainage systems, paying attention to the potential contribution to be gained to water harvesting from impermeable surfaces and accommodating waste water recycling. Development will adhere to Building Control and other regulatory regimes. Environmental performance will be designed into the proposed development. A future Design and Access Statement will demonstrate how the proposed development will contribute to and comply with the key planning objectives

Access as existing onto Thurleigh Rd, but widened. Some moderate traffic nearby but the scale of proposed development is unlikely to cause a problem. There is an hourly bus service to/from Bedford 330m from the site. There is a pavement directly outside the site linking to the village centre and bus stops, but is narrow at approximately 1m wide. Twinwood Rd nearby provides a quiet cycle route to Clapham which is the nearest place with facilities such as food shops. Scale of development unlikely warrants cost of mitigations/improvements
