Objection to KB1 on the grounds of:
- access - small lanes/via narrow railway bridge
- traffic
- wildlife and habitats at adjacent SSSI
- loss of Green Belt buffer - coalescence
- proposed development at Woolmer Green needs to be taken into account
This site is only accessible via small lanes or via a narrow railway bridge. No consideration has been given to the traffic congestion that would result from any large scale development. It is also adjacent to, and would present a serious risk to, the wildlife and habitats in the adjacent Site of Special Scientific Interest. It would unjustifiably destroy Green Belt buffer between Knebworth and Woolmer Green and does not take into account the proposed development of Woolmer Green.
