•This large development would have a major effect on congestion at Steeton traffic lights where the primary school is located. Traffic is already excessive at peak times. Development would cause havoc when traffic from hospital/school combine.
•Lack of facilities at the school to accommodate the increase in children. The school needs upgrading before any such development.
•Why use Green belt land when there is so much waste land and empty buildings in this district. That space should be used first.
•The Steeton/Silsden roundabout on the bypass is already a safety issue for pedestrians, more traffic using this area presents a great safety risk for resident walking between Steeton/Silsden.
•120 houses is too big of a development. Houses surrounding this area are pre/post 1940 with front and back gardens. New houses tend to have off road parking in front of the house so this would not be a suitable fit.
