Object SP6:
-cumulative impact north of Baldock, East of Luton, Graveley, Great Ashby, Knebworth and Royston and surrounding villages(particularly over development in Barkway)together with Codicote,Hitchin,Letchworth and Stevenage would put huge pressure on the already heavily congested A1M,A505 and other routes,where there appear to be no significant plans for improvement,either to roads or cycle networks.
-AECOM model testing highlights potential problems,not site specific and does not cover whole district.
-Highways Authority(Hertfordshire County Council)has developed a new county-wide transport model`COMET'to identify transport mitigation schemes in Royston area-looks at road network in isolation.
-Transport infrastructure should be considered holistically,not just on individual sites.
