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

Representation ID: 1504

Received: 14/03/2021

Respondent: Mr Kenneth Hobson

Representation Summary:

1. A major attraction of Silsden is its beautiful surroundings of hill pastures and trees. As with most of the proposed sites, development here will have a major adverse impact on this.
2. Access onto Bolton Road is problematic in view of this being a major route between Airedale and Wharfedale.
3. There will be further impact on TPO woodland, streams, adjacent allotments and Grade 2 listed buildings.
4. The area is within the Green Infrastructure corridor and within 2.5 km of the SPA/SAC Zone B buffer. Thus development is entirely inappropriate.
