There are 395 homes currently being developed across Bingley Road at the former Hallmark-Cards site. The new crematorium will be built on Long Lane.
There are a further 9 sites within the draft plan that feed into the route from Bingley Road/Toller Lane junction down Cottingley Hill to the roundabout by the Mercure Hotel (Bingley Road/A650). These sites add up to more than 1200 dwellings. Add in the 395 approved for the Hallmark Cards site and we have 1600+ dwellings. This brings 3000+ vehicles onto that route. Where are the school places, doctor surgeries etc. to cope with this increase. Will Bradford Royal Infirmary be expanding to cater for all of these people? What plans are there for putting road and bus infrastructure in place service these sites. This site is definitely not within 400m of a high frequency bus network.
