The Plan includes a new major road - A6 to M1 link - and a Rail Freight Interchange and warehousing site at Sundon Quarry (J11A), which threaten the AONB at Sundon, the SSSI at Sundon Quarry and the ancient woodland of George Wood.
In order to deliver a co-ordinated response to these and other threats posed by the Plan, CPRE Bedfordshire invited local parishes to join together to form a Green Belt Parishes Group. The parishes of Sundon, Harlington, Chalton, Chalgrave, Toddington and Streatley have had an initial meeting, and it is hoped that the residents of these villages will feel able to become more involved in actions to defend their communities and the broader countryside.
