Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the safe use of the highway with particular regard to the junction of Howdale Road with Saltshouse Road
  • if there is any harm, whether this is outweighed by the need to site the proposed development in the location proposed having regard to the potential availability of alternative sites

What decided it

The unresolved concern about whether the proposed development would further impede visibility at the junction of Howdale Road with Saltshouse Road, which could not be ruled out as harmless to highway safety, outweighed the benefits of 5G infrastructure delivery.

The significant benefits of 5G coverage and mast sharing were outweighed by the unresolved concerns about the effect of the proposed development on highway safety at the junction of Howdale Road with Saltshouse Road.
