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

Representation ID: 778

Received: 05/03/2021

Respondent: Mrs Deborah Mouat

Representation Summary:

I have grave concerns about the loss of green field sites as the feeling of space greatly improves the well being of nearby residents. Building yet even more homes off Lees lane will increase the traffic on this already heavily used road, such that when walking into the town I have concerns for my safety as there are no traffic calming measures. Are the council just waiting until there is a serious accident or fatality? I cannot see how the large increase in traffic will be accommodated by Midgely Drive which is narrow road. The end of Cryer Meadows has a pumping station which requires regular maintenance and so would mean new residents would find that access regularly closed thus meaning that Midgley Drive could then only be used. We hear Skipton Properties always get their way, I sincerely hope that is not the case and the council listen.
