Development will be to a high quality, ensuring that unwarranted carbon emissions are kept to a minimum. The protection of the open space will ensure that the site contributes towards the provision of green space and a positive green environment is maintained. This will also represent an enhancement in terms of biodiversity, as ecological habitats will be able to establish if the grazing on the site ceases. Additionally, as the site is located outside the Flood Zones 2 and 3, as is located on higher ground than the Flood Zones, it is unlikely that increased flooding associated with climate change will impact upon the site.

There is an existing access point onto High Street which will need to be widened and improved. Some moderate traffic in the area however will not be impacted given the scale of the development. There are bus stops within 150m where the 27 bus provides approx 4 services per day to Bedford. The main village bus stops are approx 1km away where the 905 bus provides a half hourly service between Bedford and Cambridge. There is an adequate pavement running along the frontage of the site. No specific cycle connectivity however the road in front of the site is a cycle friendly route and connects to the national cycle network about 300m away, providing off-road and quiet road cycle connections to Bedford and St Neots. Ensure a connection to the existing pavement on High Street from the site.
