In it's current form I must object to inclusion of so much greenbelt land for housing when inadequate consideration has been given to brownfield sites across BD4.

I also note that in CPRE's submission they highlight that Holme Wood suffers from significant social deprivation, and there is no evidence offered as to how building an urban extension next to Holme Wood would address the needs of that community. At the same time, the scale of countryside loss within this Green Belt pinch-point means that the social impacts of losing access to countryside and green infrastructure falling disproportionately on this already disadvantaged community.

The Plan suggests that Holmewood urban extension is co-dependent with the South East Bradford Access Road but this is missing from the Plan as a transport proposal. Similarly the proposed is Mass Transit Network for WY is not at a stage where it should be considered.
