The "new" A421 is busy enough now, and if you think the Dept for Trpt will have a dual carriageway A428 in near future then good luck with that idea. Roads around Wharley End and Cranfield to "A" roads will require much work too, present "country lanes" are terrible and will be unable to cope with the extra traffic.

Of course being another 10 years away, there could be a significant % of the current 'local' Cambridge domiciled workforce that will have or are due to retire by that date, so where the post 2030 workforce live may not be so much of an issue.
I'm sure they've thought of all this anyway.

I'm guessing the area they have leased is the area adjacent to the north end of the runway, north of Merchant Lane?

new A421 busy? Have you been on a busy dual carriageway? Try the A14 for busy.

new A428, I would be fairly confident that it will be in place long before 2030. I guess you haven’t seen what is already happening on that project.

Probably cost of converting the electricity supply to 230 volts. The whole base is wired for 115V - this put the MoD off a similar plan some years ago.

Luckily for Marshalls they have other customers who will continue flying Alberts.
