Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the proposal would lead to a highway and pedestrian safety concern
- The effect on living conditions of local residents with particular regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The proposal would intensify parking conditions within a residential area already suffering from on-street parking conflict, resulting in significant harm to highway and pedestrian safety that cannot be outweighed by the absence of harm to living conditions.
The absence of harm to living conditions was outweighed by the significant highway safety concern arising from intensified parking demand in an area already experiencing parking stress.
