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

Representation ID: 2818

Received: 21/03/2021

Respondent: Mr Marian Itzin-Borowy

Representation Summary:

I wish to object to the selection of this area for housing development as:
- the area is part of the Green Belt which needs to be preserved; the building of housing would reduce the green barrier that currently exists between Shipley and Cottingley. The use of other brownfield sites should be explored further.
- it would destroy an area of mature woodland and wildlife habitat.
- it would impact negatively of water quality and the water courses in the site and surrounding area.
- it would generate an unacceptable volume of additional road traffic onto the residential roads in Nab Wood and would also add to the already highly congested Cottingley Cliff Road and Bradford Road (A650) .
