The City Gate (Phoenix Village) site on Park Road represents one of the key regeneration opportunity sites within the southern part of the city that is already available and deliverable. It therefore is essential that this site is included within the Southern Gateway Regeneration Area, which is actively seeking regeneration and long term change to current land use including new homes, new business opportunities and environment for sustainable urban living.

Accordingly the boundary of the Southern Gateway Regeneration Area (as illustrated in Figure 9) should be redrawn to include the City Gate/Phoenix Village site, as illustrated in the attached details.

Bradford City Centre is located approximately 2 miles from the SRN, namely M606 Junction 3.
In broad terms, locating development within the various areas / quarters within the City Centre is the most appropriate location to locate development as it is the most sustainable location in terms of proximity to transport hubs and networks.
Furthermore, on their own, it is not considered that individual sites will have a severe impact on the capacity, operation and safety of the SRN, and this will be identified through the transport evidence base being prepared by the Council / the individual assessment of
the transport implications of the sites by the sites’ promoters.
However, the quantum of sites forms part of a wider cumulative impact within the City Centre area that could severely impact the SRN, and this cumulative impact will need to be established by the Council and considered by Highways England.
