This (and a 20mph speed limit) should have been implemented in 2011 after Eleanor was hit by a car while wearing head to toe hi-viz. Beach Road has many vulnerable pedestrians eg nursery school kids, local primary school kids and vulnerable adults. Absolute no-brainer to do this.
We need to keep as many mature trees as we can. They are very much needed for breathable air quality and habitat for other living beings. Humans are not the only species that matters.
These never-ending developments bring nothing but destruction to our nature and wildlife and are ruining our mental and physical health. Pollution is rising rapidly. We are already the poorest in nature country in Europe and the dirtiest one at that as it is, more developments benefit no one but construction companies involved in them and those who cell them. Long-term damage will have effect on all of us!
I do not understand how anyone could think the current roads could take the additional burden. The traffic through Finedon is already beyond believable. We all need to protect our green spaces which are becoming smaller by the week in this area.
There appears to be several existing Industrial estates/parks in the A14 area near to Burton Latimer and Kettering areas. Improving their quality, road surfaces and traffic flows should be prioritised over starting new developments on green land.
Having lived in the area for 10 years the traffic volumes and flows are a concern to residents who have made this area there home.
