Surprised that Bradford Council is considering using a green belt site for new homes when there are many derelict and prospective closure of retail premises in the Bradford District which would be ideal for new sustainable housing.

Traffic through Eldwick, Warren Lane, Parkside and roundabout is already at its peak. During school time or roadworks, the traffic jam is horrendous.

I often wait ages to exit my driveway, added traffic would be a stage too far.

Access of the Riding Club in the fields opposite to where the proposed building site would occur, riders would be completely unsafe with added traffic.

Eldwick values this green belt land for safe walking with/without dogs, there is insufficient space for pedestrian pavements, therefore making this proposal extremely dangerous.

Flooding, when it rains the water shoots down the lane and fields, affecting houses, so much so that our house has had to build a pumping system, new houses will add to this.
