General discussion on site NDP-S008

There was clear opposition to any idea of a new road onto the Kimbolton Road. The benefits to traffic flow were hotly debated but ultimately it was the risk of opening the Village up for future development along such a road that was the biggest fear.

Several residents were concerned that this development would change the character of the Village. Instead of gradually easing into the Village coming down the Raunds Road you would enter a housing "tunnel" which would be like a town.

This development isn't considered to be "in fill" like NDP-S006 it is clearly an extension of the Village.

At least nothing would be happening for 15 years but even so it wouldn't be a welcome development.
