The area of Bradford South East is bisected by the M606 and includes M606 Junctions 2 and 3. It is stated that there is 37.15 hectares of employment land and 2,362 dwellings proposed within Bradford South East.
On their own, it is considered that some of the individual sites will have a severe impact on the capacity, operation and safety of the SRN, and this will be identified through the transport evidence base being prepared by the Council / the individual assessment of the transport implications of the sites by the sites’ promoters.
Furthermore, the quantum of sites forms part of a wider cumulative impact within the Bradford South East Area and the rest of the development aspirations within the Plan could severely impact the SRN, and this cumulative impact will need to be established by the Council and considered by Highways England.
