Local Plan 2011-2031 Proposed Submission Draft

I would like to object to the proposed development plans for Barkway, in particular to the proposed development of the BK3 site. There are a number of reasons for my objections and I believe that the proposals also contradict the National Planning Policy Framework as follows.
Transport
The plan is for 140 new homes on BK3, there is no meaningful public transport in the village therefore travelling to work or to make any journey will mean travelling by car. I viewed the plans when they were presented in the Pavilion at Barkway a couple of months back and this was estimated as, and I cannot remember the exact figure, something like 60 journeys during the rush hour. I believe this is a very low estimate - at least one member of each household will travel to work which means this figure will be at least double. I suspect that it will be even higher with more than two cars within each household and journeys to the shops, the school run and for recreational purposes. The roads in and around Barkway were not built for and are hardly able to cope with the existing weight of traffic. This is a complete contradiction of NPPF30, 34, 35 and 95.
Local amenities
Barkway has a primary school which currently has 28 pupils, with an additional 140 homes priced to attract young families, the school will not be able to cope without significant expansion which I do not believe is part of the plan. There is also no middle or secondary school within the village requiring children over primary school age to travel outside of the village to Royston or Buntingford for their education.
The other amenities in Barkway are a pub, at the other end of the village the best part of a mile away (more car journeys!), a hairdressers, petrol station and garage - clearly not all needs are catered for. There is no bank or even a post office.
These I believe are contraventions of NPPF 38, 55 and 72.
Impact on the local character
BK3 is situated on a road known as 'The Joint' which forms part of the Chiltern Ridge. NHDC have in the past stated that this should be protected.
Economic growth
There is no plan to create employment or to support economic growth in the area contravening NPPF 28.
Core planning principles
The local parish council spent a long time consulting the village inhabitants and developing a neighbourhood plan which appears to have been completely ignored contravening NPPF 17.
I would be very grateful if you could take these views into consideration before approving any future development on BK3.
