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

Representation ID: 420

Received: 24/02/2021

Respondent: Mr Richard Steer

Representation Summary:

Development will inevitably impact on wildlife in the Tong Park greenbelt. This includes animals such as deer (family of four regularly seen in the area), squirrels, swans, ducks, frogs, bats, woodpeckers & small birds.

Sets precedent that building on the greenbelt is acceptable, contrary to conservation efforts and environmental concerns around wildlife habitat loss and air quality.

Additional traffic on Langley Lane with resultant congestion, noise and air pollution. Already chaotic during the school run with only one access route out of the estate.

Limited facilities means extra car usage; only a small shop serving the immediate area.
