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

Representation ID: 3750

Received: 23/03/2021

Respondent: Mr Philip Wright

Representation Summary:

Our objections to the proposed allocation of land at Scalebor are as follows-
1 number of traffic journeys through the junction opposite our house with Moor Lane and also traffic under the railway bridge on the lane.
2 inadequate shopping provision in the village resulting in additional car journeys for provisions. The parking in the village is already beyond capacity.
3 additional burden on the 2 local primary schools which are at capacity.
4 additional pressure on the local secondary schools which are already overcrowded in Otley, Ilkley and Guiseley.
5 commuter train services are already standing room only and are at the maximum carriage length for the line stations.
6 contrary to Green Belt principle and yet another assault on the green open spaces in and around the ‘village’.
