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

Representation ID: 17485

Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Julian Thomas

Representation Summary:

KY36/H is on greenbelt. Long Lee and Thwaites Brow already suffer from urban creep and due to its proximity to the crag, there is excess water running through this site. It is located exactly opposite to another proposed greenfield site, and would remove green space from both sides of this road.

The junction of Long Lee Lane and Harden Road is one of the busiest junctions in the village as traffic from the village itself and surrounding areas (including Bradford) use this as the main access and exit routes to and from Keighley. The proposed development would increase this traffic and in turn have a negative impact on an already busy junction.
