Local Plan 2011-2031 Proposed Submission Draft

I wish to put in writing my objection to the proposed plans for Knebworth.
There seems no connection between the proposed housing development and infrastructure.
The B197 is already extremely congested for a considerable part of the day, just travelling by car through the centre of the village frequently takes a long time. I live in a small road off London Road and it frequently takes 10 or more minutes just to get onto the B197 because of the amount of traffic already travelling along it.
The proposed plans also mean a great loss of local open countryside.
