Local Plan 2011-2031 Proposed Submission Draft

I am writing to comment on the North Hertfordshire District Council's Local Plan 2011 - 2031 (Proposed Submission, October 2016). In particular;

BA3 Land south of Clothall Common (Clothall parish) 200 homes * Deliver, in combination with Site BA4, a southern link road connecting Wallington Road to B656 Royston Road;

Unfortunately what is not clear in the consultation where the proposed southern link road will be? The council produced a report in 2014 showing options for this route, which I understand is separate to this consultation. However If the proposed route is at the back of the houses on Aleyn Way (top of Clothall common) then I would be concerned for the following reasons;
1. The mound at the back of Clothall common is heavily used by the residents of Baldock as a walking route (promoting healthy living)
2. The mound was create to protect against noise from the bypass. Putting a road in the proposed route would be go against this principle.
3. The mound was created with the rubble that was dug out during the construction of the bypass and is unstable.
4. The greenway at the back of Clothall common is heavily used by the residents of Baldock and building it there would go against the principle of the plan which is to promote the use of existing green space area (SP12)

As such is the Plan a sound plan for the future of North Hertfordshire? This is not clear as no details have been provided in terms of the proposed southern link road.
