The geography of the area to the south comprising Darland and Capstone Valleys is not compatible with cycling or walking to employment areas (eg. Gillingham business park, Rochester airport park) because of the gradients and hazardous roads due to density of traffic. Building more houses will not change the gradients of the hills and there will continue to be a reliance on cars. Of course that results in greater congestion and reduction in air quality.
