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

Representation ID: 3313

Received: 22/03/2021

Respondent: Colin Raistrick

Representation Summary:

In my previous comment I failed to mention the following:-
1) The queue of traffic on Cottingley Cliffe Road from Nab Wood Drive junction to Cottingley primary school, and on the pavement/verges, when parents are bringing and collecting children from the school would be greatly exasperated by more traffic in the area from additional houses.

2) The proposed building area encroaches on the woodland area adjacent to Bankfield Drive. This is an ancient woodland with many various indigenous varieties of trees and plant life.

3) The variety of birds and animal wildlife would be adversely affected by their loss of habitat. This includes Deer, foxes, pheasant, Jays, finches,
robins, great and blue tits, dunnocks, sparrows and raven to name a few.
