Object to KB1 on the grounds of:
- size of development
- existing transport issues, congestion and rat running
- need for a secondary school
- infrastructure needs to be considered
- village to not be spoilt and be safe
- facilities needed for those with young children & extra provision needed for children under statutory age, current providers full to capacity
I feel that this development is too large, especially as there will be a similar sized one close by. Knebworth is already struggling with transport and heavy congestion , making most of the roads a rat run.
There is currently a need for a secondary school in theis area as all children of this age have to travel out of the village to access their education. There is no mention of extra provision for children under statutory age and current providers are full to capacity at the present time, so where will all these new families go?
