1. The roads in this part of Ben Rhydding are narrow and there would be traffic chaos at busy times. Ben Rhydding Drive and Wheatley Grove are both narrow roads with low capacity and no scope to be widened.
2. The narrow, single traffic, railway bridge would not be able to cope with the increased traffic creating long tailbacks at peak times.
3. The Ilkley schools are already struggling and there is no capacity to cope with the increased demand that these dwellings would require.
4. The drains in the area are already overloaded. The Victorian sewage system which is already inadequate would be overwhelmed.
