At a village meeting at Hardwick, re Bourn airfield, I feel that the developers have given an unrealistic estimate of the number of cars which will be using the site. The minimum number of cars with one per household would be 3,500. The majority of households have two cars giving a total of 7,000 cars onto St Neots Road. This would cause considerable congestion on St Neots Road and all local roads. I feel with this number of cars it is essential for the development to have its own access to the A428 providing a link to the A428 (the Cambridge to Oxford highway) and with the A14, A1, M11 and Cambridge.
I would also like to say that I feel that there is a need for the Girton interchange to be expanded to include a link to the M11. At present to access the M11 south, cars have to go down Madingley Hill which can lead to a delay of over one hour.
Regarding healthcare facilities which are full to capacity in the area the site would require its own to cater for 7,000 people minimum.
Regarding the location of schools on the site I feel they are too near the existing A428 and would be in a high pollution area.
I also feel that the area for local businesses is too small in relation to the number of houses. A lot of people would have to travel from the site each day.
