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

Representation ID: 20698

Received: 11/03/2021

Respondent: Nigel Melvin

Representation Summary:

Loss of a beautiful area that walkers over the years have enjoyed and which brings business to the pubs and cafes in the village.

For too many years 'new sites' have appeared in Baildon, which has caused an 'overload' of traffic on Baildon Road during peak times, as essentially there is really only one way in and one way out.

Many residents drive to and from work at peak times and any increase in travel time reduces time they have with their families. Not only has this had a bad affect on the environment and the safety of our children, but the condition of many roads in Baildon, is frankly appalling.

Why then, would any resident in their right mind, welcome additional 'dig ups' and an increase in traffic numbers ?
