Respondent: Rachel Wood

3.7.4 A reasonable policy but fails to solve the need to travel across the District.

3.7.5 is a good strategy but relates to regional rather than district travel, whereas the District’s travel infrastructure should be the focus and priority of transport policy.

3.7.12 In the absence of a defined transport strategy without a budget or timetable for delivery, it is difficult to see how BDMC can respond to the ‘rapid change’ required in the NPPF.

Whilst rail connectivity is reasonable across the District, timetabling is an issue for some shift workers. Particularly those in ‘transport poverty’.

When do BDMC anticipate that Bradford Transport Strategy 2040 will be fully documented and funded for public consideration?

• Greater reference to cross-boundary working within policies – the council believes that there could be greater reference to cross-boundary working including within policies relating to the highway network (Policy SP1, SP3), White Rose Forest (Policy EN3), Mass Transit (Policy SP6) and strategic green infrastructure (Policy SP10).

Support is given to Policy SP7 in that it sets out a sensible approach to ensuring that development is located in sustainable places, and residents have access to a wide range of sustainable forms of transport. However, allocating large numbers of sites on the western edge of Addingham runs contrary to this policy as they are not close to services or facilities, including those in the village centre, and the nearby bus route does not offer a viable alternative to the use of the private car for journeys to work - even if it only means using the car to drive to Ilkley to catch the train.
