Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021

Representation ID: 11393

Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Isabel Joyce Russell

Representation Summary:

The Sun Lane and Scalebor housing proposals are totally impractical and against current policy - it appalls me that residents are presented by such poor planning proposals: building on green belt when brown field sites available and also placed nearer to available job opportunities, thus less travel to work.

Both sites unsuitable 1) flood plain 2) on a hill. Both locations are inhabited with wild life, rare birds and plants and Sun Lane in particular an outdoor reserve for local residents to walk without driving anywhere. Then, the support services are inadequate for such an enormous developments. Not sufficient school places, access to transport and carparking for rail travel...already a problem, The Surgery would not be able to cope without expansion. I could go on but we have been objecting about Sun Lane for several years now and all such previous objections I support again in making this latest objection.
