Full text:

BALDOCK is one of only 5 Hertfordshire towns classed as being of national importance for its historic character and contains over 100 listed buildings. We all know that new housing is needed, why should BALDOCK have to increase its population by 80% to accommodate over 3000 new homes and factory units?

Pollution within Whitehorse Street is over the governments recommendation levels at present, without the increased volume of traffic.

The town can be gridlocked at rush hours at the junction of A507/Whitehorse St/Clothall road at present.

No infrastructure has been confirmed before any homes are built, schools, GPs etc.
