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

Representation ID: 3540

Received: 22/03/2021

Respondent: Mrs Sabine Robinson

Representation Summary:

Traffic: We've already seen a large increase in traffic on both Moor Park Drive and Moor Lane due to the recent 18 newly built houses at the top of Moor Lane. Six new houses are already being built and will add to the problem. If all the planned housing goes ahead, there is a potential of the number of cars to increase by 160. Both access roads (Moor Lane and Moor Park Drive) are narrow with cars parked either side. Moor Park Drive has many bungalows and houses for an older population. The speed limits of 20 mph are already not kept, so more traffic will pose an even greater danger to vulnerable residents.
Greenbelt land: The plan proposes building on designated greenbelt land in our picturesque and traditional village enjoyed by hikers (on Dales Way) when there is brownfield land available for development in the Bradford Met District itself.
