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

Representation ID: 12138

Received: 21/03/2021

Respondent: Irum Bhatti

Representation Summary:

I would like to raise an objection to the proposed 155 properties planned for March Cote Lane, Cottingley. The reasons are as follows:

Traffic. Cottingley already struggles with traffic due to expansion of the estate and two schools based in close proximity to one another and this would add to the pressure

Schools and medical centre: These cannot accommodate the large number of people in Cottingley. There is already a 5 day wait at the GP practice for an appointment

Flooding and drainage ; The village is prone to flooding due to watercourses running through land, water coming down from the fields. Cottingley flooded last year and causes disruption to hundreds of people.

Please count my objection in your figures.
