Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021
Representation ID: 28990

Respondent: Bradford District Ward Councillor (Conservative)
1. There is a demand for housing for older people, as a majority of the large, detached dwellings are being occupied by the elderly who want to stay in the area but there is a shortage of smaller quality properties.
2. Long lane is a slim carriageway, it’s not fit for more traffic between Harden and Cullingworth. Two cars can’t pass side by side. The road was not designed for modern levels of traffic and can’t cope with current volumes. This is a high risk to pedestrians especially school children and the elderly.
3. Harden is a community with an elderly population, a population that needs access to health care facilities. There is no Doctors’ Surgery in Harden; this should be a priority.
