Local Plan 2011-2031 Proposed Submission Draft

With reference to the Local Plan in respect of the proposed to development around Knebworth.

I do not feel that the plan provides an adequate solution to the development of Knebworth.

The current plan does not offer any connection between proposed development location.
The current plan does not have a strategy to upgrade local resources to cope with the additional population and houses introduced.
The suggested development at KB4 would cause excessive erosion of the green belt between Knebworth and Stevenage
The site at KB3 should not be developed for property but should remain as commercial to increase employment and facilities for Knebworth ie Parking/shops/schools
The current transportation links and highways are already congested. Areas such as the narrow railway bridge with narrow pavements causing people to stand in the highway to pass are already dangerous. Increasing developments on either side of Knebworth would dramatically increase both vehicular and pedestrian traffic through these locations

A plan that centred around development in ie Old Knebworth would appear to offer a better solution as resources and infrastructure could be concentrated in one area.
