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

Representation ID: 6052

Received: 02/03/2021

Respondent: Mr Richard Sharman

Representation Summary:

The field gets flooded regularly, sometimes flooding our back gardens.
Taking away this vital drainage will have a negative impact on the residents of March Cote Lane and will lead to our properties becoming flooded regularly.
Traffic is very bad in the village, especially around rush hour.
Due to the design of the village, there are a lot of restricted routes, this new estate would be accessed via March Cote Lane which can only be accessed via Coppy Close / Manor Road.
It’s already very busy street for traffic and parking, adding this estate will further increase this congestion and decrease the quality of life for residents.
Local schools and facilities are inadequate, added more housing without proper investment into the village infrastructure will cause long term damage to the village and have an adverse impact to desirability / property values for the area.
