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

It is not considered that locating development within the
settlements within Denholme, on their own, 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 Denholme and the rest of the development aspirations within the Plan could severely impact the SRN, and this cumulative impact will need to be established by the Council and considered by Highways England.

1. 72 houses are recommended in the plan for Denholme. However, Denholme is, like the other settlements in my area, a small area where a small number of new homes increase the size of the settlement by a large %.
2. The new development would cause increased traffic, and the area has major issues with heavy goods traffics flowing through the village.
3. There is a lack of facilities: schools, doctor surgeries etc, in the community.
