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

Representation ID: 17154

Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Bradford District Ward Councillor (Labour)

Representation Summary:

Royds Ward is already highly urbanised with overstretched infrastructure. The cumulative impact of the housing sites proposed in the draft Local Plan will worsen an already inequitable position.

In particular, the major sites suggested remove significant countryside and open spaces from the southern borders of the ward and the communities that live there. This also further distances accessible countryside from all residents in an already highly built-up area. The local infrstructure is not capable of sustaining these developments.

I have detailed concerns regarding the inclusion of the following sites: SW14/H; SW26/H; SW30/H; SW32/H; SW34/H
