Object to SP14: Scale of development, infrastructure (rails, road, education), infrastructure funding, air pollution

Full text:

I support building homes but 2,800 homes is too excessive.
1) Baldock has a thriving community and 2800 homes is too many to integrate into the community successfully
2)I have severe concerns that the infrastructure plans are insufficient, particularly rail, road and schooling. Eg Govia is proposing reduced train services in its current consultation
3) The infrastructure plans lack detail e.g how these plans will be funded to make sure infrastructure is in place before the homes are built
4) I'm also very concerned about air pollution in Baldock due to many more cars on the road
