Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would have an unacceptable impact on highway safety
What decided it
The requirement for either one or no additional car parking space(s) over and above the existing dwelling's requirement would not have an unacceptable impact on highway safety or result in a severe impact on the surrounding highway network.
The limited additional parking demand and opportunities to promote sustainable modes of transport outweighed concerns about on-street parking pressure.
