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

Representation ID: 6049

Received: 02/03/2021

Respondent: Ms Angela Halstead

Representation Summary:

The main proposed entry/exit route on Lysander Way and around the primary school is already dangerous, particularly at school drop off.
It will increase pollution through more cars.
The roads in Cottingley village are not adequate.
Cars regularly parked on the pavement forcing children/parents with pushchairs to walk on the road.
The bus route on Airedale avenue can be particularly bad.
Driveway exits are often blocked by parked cars.
March Cote Lane will become a rat run of traffic trying to avoid the main roads.
There is localised flooding. Currently there is a blocked drain. When it freezes it causes dangerous road conditions particularly onto coppy close.
The fields are an important area for wildlife. There are bats in the area so would go against conservation.
It’s Greenbelt land when other sites could be used.
Local schools and doctors' surgeries are not equipped for potentially another 200 children.
