Objection to Baldock:
-inadequate roads to allow for the proposed increase in population:congestion, pollution and danger to pedestrians under railway bridge close to rail station (which can't be widened)
-insufficient rail capacity for transport into london/cambridge
-damage to the green belt,local fauna and flora
-pollution levels due to increased traffic
-inadequate capacity in schools, doctors surgery and other public facilities which are already - no detailed measures / actionable detailed plans in place
- artificially doubling the population in such a short space of time will change Baldock from the rural community current residents have chosen to live in
I am writing to express my disagreement with the proposal to build 3,290 new homes in Baldock by 2031.
My concerns are as follows:
- inadequate roads to allow for the proposed increase in population - in particular congestion, pollution and danger to pedestrians under railway bridge close to rail station (which can't be widened)
- insufficient rail capacity for transport into london/cambridge (assuming a part of new residents will commute unless a large number of jobs are created in Baldock to allow newcomers to work there)
- damage to the green belt and local fauna and flora
- pollution levels due to increased traffic
- inadequate capacity in schools, doctors surgery and other public facilities which are already - no detailed measures / actionable detailed plans in place
- artificially doubling the population in such a short space of time will change Baldock from the rural community current residents have chosen to live in
