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

Representation ID: 890

Received: 07/03/2021

Respondent: Mr Simon Lawrence

Representation Summary:

The number of houses planned for Addingham is far too high. It represents more than a 10% increase in the total number of houses in the village.
The village does not have the infrastructure to manage a potential increase in population of 500+ people. The current facilities are sufficient for the village as it is but difficult to understand how they could manage with such an influx of people plus the road through the village is already very busy and used as a "rat-run" with many near misses for accidents as cars travel far too fast through the village. The Green Belt is precious land and there is such an abundance of wildlife much of which is under threat across the UK such as owls, bats etc.
