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

Representation ID: 5549

Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Mr Keith Riley

Representation Summary:

The access for 30 new dwellings will be via Golden View Drive. On this road there are 19 dwellings in total. This is a quiet unadopted/private cul-de-sac, each resident owns the area in front of their house and up to the middle of the road. Some years ago residents paid to have this road tarmacked, and only last year a private contractor repaired a section outside our house. Other sections of the road are starting to break up. With extra traffic from heavy construction vehicles and long term traffic from 30 houses, we are concerned that there will be significant deterioration to the road surface - who will be responsible for maintenance? Some of the 19 houses do not have driveways/garages and some have more than 2 cars, so there are always cars parked on both sides of the road which significantly narrows the road to one car width.
