I strongly object to the proposed development of the Green Belt Land at West Lane Baildon, for housing purposes.

I feel that the infrastructure is not sufficient to support the numbers of new residents (and their motor vehicles). There is problem enough with the amount of road traffic, at busy times, in this area. Sandal school being an obvious example, owing to the numbers of cars parked inappropriately at drop-off/collection times. To add to this is madness and dangerous.

There are only 2 doctors’ surgeries supporting the whole of the Baildon population. Additional housing may overwhelm the practices and medical services suffer.


I accept there IS a need for housing. Perhaps the answer might be to develop Brown Belt areas?
