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

Representation ID: 25658

Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Daphne Fox

Representation Summary:

Strongly oppose building for the following reasons:

1. Building on Green Belt – should not be allowed to happen. Area acts as a buffer to the valley. Pollution (light, noise, environmental) will occur and impact greatly on the surrounding area.

2. Tong Park Valley & Spring Woods area – building would change its character and ruin it forever. There is much wildlife and plant life in the area, open aspects and green spaces. It is a rich and bio-diverse valley. Has to be other areas where these could be built

3. Traffic on Langley Lane - has been traffic chaos at school opening/closing times. It is already dangerous – adding 80 cars would be untenable.

4. Infrastructure cannot support another 40 houses – local schools are full, rail services limited and parking at the station is unobtainable.

Nothing positive about the development – will be to the detriment of Baildon and another beauty spot/habitat gone.
