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

Representation ID: 4667

Received: 23/03/2021

Respondent: Mrs K Pearson

Representation Summary:

I object because the road infrastructure within Wilsden is already at breaking point. The main street is difficult to negotiate because it narrow with parked cars all the way through the village. The minor roads, Crack Lane,Shay Lane, Lee Lane are very narrow with single vehicle only points, and used by many vehicles as a rat run. More housing will bring a minimum of 2 cars per dwelling leading on to a narrow lane, choked with parked cars. Hazardous for pedestrians wanting to access the paths around the area. The pull out of Crack Lane on to Main Street is nearly blind, and this part of the Lane is also choked with parked vehicles, often near the junction The bus service is poor and very unreliable., with only one service going to Bradford. The roundabout is dangerous and also narrowed on both sides with parked cars.
