I am writing to object to the planning proposals for 1322 new dwellings in Shipley:

1. Loss of green sapce

2. All proposals are for private developers to build. The area needs affordable housing which should be provided by the Council.

3. Bradford has nearly 8000 empty properties, 500 of these have been empty for five years. The council needs to purchase and renovate the many derelict mills

5. Shipley / Saltaire Road - road traffic and pollution is already at an unacceptable level.

6. The Airedale line train service is sub-standard and overcrowded. Sometimes I have had to wait on the platform at Saltaire for the third train to arrive before being able to get on. Your proposals do not address transport issues.

7. Re: SH3H: The Wycliffe - It is outrageous that you would propose licencing a corporation to fill that space (landfill) with houses.
