The development of the fields will generate considerable traffic on a lane with poor visibility, no pavements and limited width and thus generate risks to the lives and health of pedestrians and motorists.

Local infrastructure is already oversubscribed in terms of doctors, dentists and school.

The Land is designated as Green Belt to prevent urban sprawl - no evidence that there are “exceptional circumstances” why the fields have to be removed from Green Belt.

There are many alternative (non-Green Belt) sites suitable for development in the Bingley area which have not been taken into consideration.

Failure to protect environment and landscapes.

Increased pollution and pluvial flooding.

Development close to the Prince of Wales Park will affect local wildlife including deer, birds and bats.

Bradford Council is part of the WYCA Review. This is likely to result in further parcels of (non-Green Belt) land becoming available in the near future for development.
