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

Representation ID: 18142

Received: 22/03/2021

Respondent: Rachel Crolla

Representation Summary:

-Main concern is road safety. Chapel Street is narrow with no pavement for half its length and the potential egress of any more cars down the one way Back Beck Lane.
-Potential entrance could be from School Lane, however is unsuitable, particularly the narrow lane linking the upper part of School Lane with the lower part where the junction of Green Lane, School Lane and Burns Hill is. This is an unusually narrow stretch with no pavement and no room to install a pavement. There is also a blind bend here.
-Safety concerns. 20mph speed bumps must go in on School Lane.
-Site could easily be much better developed as a nature reserve, green space or park. It is already reverting to nature and is well loved and used by local people.
-Concern regarding flooding. Back Beck has flooded spectacularly several times in the last few years.
