I object to developments planned on green field sites (environmental reasons) and larger developments of more than 6 properties as the village already can not handle the amount of local and other traffic passing through it, and there is very limited parking for people driving in to use village amenities. There is only one road and even with the bypass this is already very congested and difficult to navigate. It spoils the village with traffic noise and pollution. Traffic from Keighley, etc travelling to Harrogate, etc also comes through the village. I don't object to a few small brownfield developments but significant development that feeds traffic directly through the village is a disaster. The village needs to be able to accommodate tourism and as it is a conservation area we do not want over development or the village will choke. Thank you.
