Representation Summary:

Object to SP5: Object to review of Green Belt, compensatory provision will not compensate for area separating Graveley and Stevenage

Full text:

Ramblers Association strongly objects to building on Green Belt land and especially on NS1, also GR1 & 2. Any areas added to Green Belt elsewhere in the District will not compensate for the area separating Graveley and Stevenage.
The general area of NS1 is important to walkers (and probably wildlife) as the best of the few green corridors allowing them to connect areas east and west of the barriers of the A1 motorway and the railway.
