Comment that construction traffic should avoid Denny End Road which is not designed for heavy vehicles and residential properties are at risk of damage from vibrations.

Denny End Road has suffered a vast increase in heavy lorries over the past few years, in addition to constant use by heavy farm traffic. Over the past few months, this has been aggravated by construction traffic for the Bannold Road development. The infrastructure was not designed for such heavy vehicles, and properties in the road are subject to violent shocks on the occasions that vehicles hit one of the many dips and hollows in the surface. Frequent water mains leaks in the road indicate this. I would strongly object if it is planned that construction traffic for the new Waterbeach Airfield development would access the site via the residential part of Denny End Road. There is an access gate to the airfield at the A10 end of Denny End Road, and I would suggest that all construction traffic enter the site by this entrance.
