Economic and development prospects in Bedford have been considerably improved by the completion of the A421 road linking the M1 and A1. This has enhanced the attractions of the industrial and business parks, allowing vehicles to go round the town. Further improvements, such as links between the A428 and A421 and between the A428 and A6, will bring more gains.
Douglas Duff’s Andrew Clarke said: “We are already seeing more enquiries and the knock on effect of the road looks like bringing higher quality offices and industrial space to the town.” The new bypass makes the main commercial estates and the flagship Priory Business Park more accessible. He added that “the Bedford Borough Council has been very pro active and helpful to businesses and the economic development unit has highlighted ‘22 Strategic Sites for Business.’ The new road should encourage developers to look at Bedford.”
