Full text:

Paragraph 13.183 states that The village of Knebworth has a good range of facilities including a railway station, school, doctors and dentists, library, a range of shops, village hall and churches. Currently the railway station, school and doctors are all insufficient to deal with current demand. Most specifically parking at the railway station is inadequate and street parking by rail users leads to conflict between rail users and residents. A 25-30% increase in dwellings will further overload these facilities.
