Respondent: Bradford District Ward Councillor (Conservative)
The Heights Lane sites B14/H and BI8/H adjoins the Prince of Wales Registered Park. The loss of the greenfield site is likely to have a negative impact upon the local landscape particularly the Prince of Wales Park. This site also falls within 2.5km of the South Pennine Moors SPA/ and the site is located in a moderate performing Green Belt parcel. There is potential for sprawl and would have a moderate impact on openness. This site does not present an opportunity to create a stronger boundary than that which exists. Close to a Local Wildlife Site and park with the potential to impact on these settings. Heights Lane is a narrow country road with no footpaths, the sight lines at the junction with Otley Road are poor. Heights Lane is very popular with walkers and riders- increased traffic onto the mini roundabout will be dangerous.
