Local Plan 2011-2031 Proposed Submission Draft

how can you be prepared to put 900 houses in an area where has no facility to take the extra load of traffic. Every morning its gridlock down into the old town down rectory lane and pass the hospital, how can we take 100s more cars every morning and evening at peak times we cant get out onto north road now we will be queueing for half hour maybe an hour to get to the old town it is ridiculous to think a change to the graveley junction will solve this. Apart from this the land is one of the only beauty sites left in Stevenage that is used by residents and walkers every day all year round which must not be ruined by Stevenage borough council. Has anyone in this process thought about and been involved with the views of the residents asked opinions and kept them up to date with the plans it has been handled in a disgusting manner by Stevenage borough council.

Can you please tell me why I have received a leaflet from housing companies for the land north of Stevenage when the land is not even been approved yet, this smells of corruption and the council being in bed with these greedy housing companies and now looks to me that the council are after the backhand rebate from the government even though this is land that we know should not be built on. The roads in this area really cannot take the kind of traffic from the amount of housing you are planning to build and you know this also you will be ruining peoples lives who have paid a big premium to live in this part of OLD Stevenage and you are taking away the only beauty spot left in this town. You are also taking away a part of heritage that has been part of this land for a long time and that you have been happy to advertise this fact with signs etc when it suited you to do so. There are massive amounts of land on the other side of the a1 where you can build tens of thousands of houses with a direct safe link into Stevenage but instead you have trying to ruin vital residents of Stevenage lives and land. Please can you tell me why it is so hard to contact somebody with such a big project you should have a 24hr hotline link on your main website with peoples and residents concerns and updates but no its really difficult but I feel sure that is the way you want it. I would like someone who is on the council on the planning committee to contact me with some answers.
