This response supports the inclusion of Site SW1/H.

Site SW1/H will contribute towards the housing need in Bradford South West. The site lies in a sustainable location, close to existing services and facilities. It is available, suitable and deliverable.

The Sustainability Appraisal confirms SW1/H is well located to provide residents with good access to shops, jobs, buses and cultural spaces, with particularly good access to schools and health facilities.

SW1/H sits adjacent to the Clayton Conservation Area and is in proximity to a number of Listed Building. In order to preserve the rural character and setting of the conservation area, SW1/H will look to retain the identified key open space.

There are no environmental constraints associated with the site that cannot be dealt with via appropriate design. The development of SW1/H would form a logical extension to the urban edge.

Over the last 5 years our client has been actively promoting SW1/H

Once SW1/H is ‘Allocated’ our client will be looking to submit a planning application almost immediately. In this context the Delivery Timescales should be amended to 0 – 5 years.
