Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on highway safety
What decided it
The Council's recent approval of a comparable garage proposal at the opposite property with similar highway safety implications, combined with the benefit of reducing on-street parking pressure in a high-density area, outweighed the potential for pedestrian/vehicle conflict.
The potential for pedestrian/vehicle conflict and less than ideal intervisibility at the garage was outweighed by the benefit of reducing on-street parking pressure in a high-density area and the precedent of the comparable approved scheme, resulting in no material harm to highway safety.
