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

Representation ID: 2617

Received: 20/03/2021

Respondent: Professor Robert Smith

Representation Summary:

As stated before, this is the greenbelt site of which I object most strongly. The access for an additional 49 houses onto Southfield Lane or St Paul's Rise, both leading into the steep Old Station Way, which in icy conditions is especially problematic, and then turning onto Main Street at a blind corner where there is congestion from parked vehicles drastically increases this to become a serious traffic black spot. There is a crossing point opposite for children walking to the primary school which also makes it a danger zone, and a nearby nursery. The development of this site would destroy the very heart of the village.
