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

Representation ID: 5052

Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Dr Andrew Dawson

Representation Summary:

Fleet Lane does not provide a suitable location for significant house building within Queensbury for a number of reasons including:
The Foxhill park end of Fleet Lane is already difficult to negotiate and therefore dangerous, in particular when leaving Fleet Lane via that route. It is very difficult to see traffic coming from either direction on the main road. Additional traffic from a larger number of houses will make this significantly worse.
There is a blind bend at the same end of Fleet Lane by the kennels that consistently causes issues with traffic, especially when children are being picked up or dropped off at the primary school.
Fleet Lane is too narrow to provide a suitable entrance to an estate.
Noise and pollution increases due to the proposed houses and the cars that will inevitably come with them will be significant, especially near Foxhill primary school.
