We all need to take a fair proportion of the proposed development but by almost doubling the size of Baldock is not practical.

Baldock is still gridlocked in rush hour with the bypass. The expansion does not adequately take into account that over 3000 house is another 5000 cars. At the same time there is a reduction is trains into London just exacerbating the carnage on the roads.

There are no sports provison in the new plans, local sports teams are already having to turn people.
