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

Representation ID: 5235

Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Mrs Caroline Woods

Representation Summary:

Developing W12/H would cause access issues, Crack Lane is already a nightmare as two cars cannot pass. How can you widen it without affecting Nook House? The field is sopping wet and covering it with houses will increase the risk of flooding yet further, water absolutely streams down Shay Lane off surrounding fields. There is water running down the side of the field, where it adjoins Sycamore Chase, which still hasn’t seen it’s roads adopted due to drainage concerns, I understand. This area of the village is too wet for more houses!
Please consider using Prospect Mill on Main St, which has better capacity, is more accessible and has been previously developed and won’t cause flood issues.
