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

Representation ID: 14005

Received: 21/03/2021

Respondent: Timothy Pratt

Representation Summary:

We all know the current drainage system cannot cope with the current number of houses in Turner Lane and Moor Lane. We will see an increased risk of flooding.


160 extra cars making several journeys a day will significantly increase noise, congestion, pollution and risk of injury.

People already do not adhere to the 20mph speed limit on Moor Lane. Our children will be at risk of injury or worse with increased traffic.

Building on these sites will mean the loss of Green Belt land. It will greatly diminish the setting of the village from the Western side, spoiling the character and appearance of Addingham.


Addingham has been allocated too many houses overall. It is a small village with limited services but has been allocated a bigger percentage of new houses than any other. This will put pressure on Addingham Primary School. Ilkley Grammar School is already oversubscribed.
