There is a large amount of pedestrian usage of the paths and roads in this area, mostly by residents, visitors and tourists accessing the Old Bridge, Riverside Gardens and the playing field north of the river. This proposed development would drastically diminish the current open space, which forms a necessary introduction to this much used area.
Bridge Lane is frequently blocked by flood water, making access to the site only possible via Stockheld Road.
Stockheld Road is a much used and necessary car parking area, and access from the development site would give rise to significant parking problems.
