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

Representation ID: 912

Received: 07/03/2021

Respondent: Mr Radhi Al Mausawe

Representation Summary:

- Many of the rare birds and animals who live in this area will be detrimentally impacted as they lose their homes.
- The fields provide absorbent land to take away water and reduce chance of flooding in the area.
- There is only one exit out of Cottingley and it is already very busy at peak times; the addition of 155 dwellings and associated cars will make traffic even worse. This will impact both the families who live in Cottingley and all commuters who use Cottingley New Rd.
- The local GP already struggles to provide timely appointments; C01/H will increase demand and make this worse.
- There is already a waiting list for the local Primary school; C01/H plans plus other plans (SH4/M, SH5/M and SH6/M) will add to the burden on this school and mean that families in the area may not find places for their children.
