I have lived in Copthorne Stopsley for over 30 years and I last wrote to you in February 2015 objecting to the proposed massive home building proposals.

We now have Plans for over 2000 additional homes and Airport Expansion/ Business Park that will attract another 7,000 Employees. We have the building under way on the old Vauxhall ground in Kimpton Road, and a new School being built in Gypsy Lane, all that in itself is going to generate a few Thousand more vehicles in this small congested area.

Wigmore Lane, Eaton Green Road and Crawley Green Road
The prospect of this going ahead is absolutely frightening and really scares me. The local Roads where I live namely Wigmore Lane, Eaton Green Road and Crawley Green Road that are already congested with traffic at peak times will not be able to cope with any of this expansion in vehicle movements.

Any New road linking with the A505 will not stop the traffic from using these 3 Roads for access into Luton Town Centre or getting to the Asda Store and other shops areas including Stopsley Village. These 3 roads will still be the main method of choice for thousands of drivers making their way to the M1. If all this building and Airport Expansion were to go ahead it would be complete madness resulting in no assessable Roads to Luton and destroying our lives.
