Richard Fuller has submitted an objection to the plans for 416 houses north of Biggleswade, near Furzenhall Road.
Commenting on the plans, Richard said: "I share the concerns of many constituents about this planning application, and have written to the Council to show the strength of my opposition. I have a number of concerns:
1) The application does not demonstrate that the scale and location of the development would be sustainable.
2) The application does not demonstrate that highway and public safety has been considered. The general location of the site, the limited access to the site, and its proximity to a school have led to concerns being raised with me that the safety of pedestrians and road users cannot be guaranteed.
3) I support the Town Council’s comments about the Transport Assessment. The Town Council has come to the conclusion that the applicant’s modelling formula does not adequately represent the difficulties which would arise at some of the road junctions and that there has not been an assessment of the dangers inherent in the location of the proposed housing."
