Local Plan 2011-2031 Proposed Submission Draft
EL1, EL2, EL3 Land east of Luton
Representation ID: 2012
Received: 24/11/2016
Respondent: Mrs Sue Humphreys
Legally compliant? Not specified
Sound? Not specified
Duty to co-operate? Not specified
Objection to EL1, EL2, EL3 on the grounds of:
- greenbelt
- loss of three villages
- the two access roads already struggle to cope with traffic
- severe congestion on roads to the M1 already
- North Hertfordshire does not need this land for homes
- not the most suitable place for Luton's housing needs
The proposal to build 2000 new homes on greenbelt land, thereby swallowing up 3 villages, seems wholly inappropriate. This land is accessed from Hertfordshire by 2 one track roads with passing places, which already struggle to cope with existing traffic, let alone another 2000 cars. There is also severe congestion on roads to the M1 already.
North Hertfordshire does not need this land for homes and it does not appear to be the most suitable place for Luton's housing needs, has common sense gone out of the window in the scramble to produce these 'Local Plans'.
Please save our lovely countryside and villages.
