Object on the following grounds:
loss of an area of outstanding beauty;
brownfield sites available for development in Luton;
congestion on local roads; and
number of houses is out of proportion to the small villages.
I wish to object to the building plans for the East of Luton on the following grounds:
1. You would be covering an area of outstanding beauty which is totally unnecessary as there are many brown field sites available in Luton for development for housing.
2. The local roads already gridlock at peak times. It can take up to an hour to get into the town centre from my house during rush hour - 3.5 miles. During the summer it was taking me 30 minutes to get past the airport to M1 junction 10 - just 3 miles. With this additional housing, the traffic will only worsen as the traffic will have to come through my area to get to the town centre or to exit the town.
3. The number of houses in the proposed development is out of proportion with the small villages that will be swallowed up.
