The outline is the boundary the promoter published. It can include cable, pipeline or road routes as well as the main site. 197 hectares inside the published boundary.

What is proposed

The Woodside Link is a new road intended to provide a more direct route for traffic between the primary road network (the M1 motorway and the A5) and the Woodside area of Dunstable / Houghton Regis, a major employment area in Bedfordshire. The Highways Agency is currently promoting a northern link road (the A5-M1 Link) between the A5 (north of its junction with the A505) and the M1, at a new junction (which will become Junction 11A) between the existing junctions 11 and 12. The Woodside Link scheme would run from this new junction into the Woodside area.
