Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the safety of pedestrians and other road users on Station Road and Venus Lane

What decided it

The proposed parking area would substantially increase the risk of incidents with pedestrians and vehicles due to restricted visibility at the junction, rendering the carriageway significantly more hazardous to navigate.

The small benefits of providing one dwelling and contributing to housing supply would not outweigh the considerable harm to the safety of pedestrians and other road users and the conflict with development plan policy

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy ST7 of Bath and North East Somerset Placemaking Plan

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
