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

Representation ID: 905

Received: 07/03/2021

Respondent: Mr Ian Park

Representation Summary:

This is beautiful green belt land and to suggest that the entrance could be from Southfield Lane is madness. There exists lovely woodland and hedgerows and a beck up onto the moor there plus a well-used and loved footpath. That would be destroyed if a road was to be put through to the new estate. It would adversely impact Southfield Terrace which I would have thought has some sort of ‘grade status’. In addition, Southfield Lane is a narrow road with on road parking. No way could it cope with another 100+ cars per day minimum; most houses would have more than two cars per household. The angular sharp turn at the bottom before it joins St Paul’s Rise can not sustain the extra traffic. This area of Addingham could not sustain 49 more houses. A road here would definitely destroy barn owl habitat.
