Strongly object to this development. My concerns are:

• Development will generate considerable traffic on a lane with poor visibility, no pavements and limited width, create safety risks.

• Local infrastructure is over-subscribed.

• Land is designated Green Belt. No evidence produced to show that there are “exceptional circumstances” why the fields have to be removed from it.

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

• Development will not meet the overarching environmental objective of protecting/enhancing the environment included valued landscapes.

• Development will increase pollution and generate pluvial flooding.

• Development close to Prince of Wales Park will inhibit and reduce the environment that supports wildlife.

• Bradford is part of the WYCA review – likely to result in parcels of non-Green Belt land becoming available for development. No need to remove fields from the Green Belt to meet house building targets.
