Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the appearance of the host property
  • The effect of the proposal on highway safety

What decided it

The vehicular crossover would require vehicles to reverse into or out of Stafford Road across the pavement on a busy classified distributor road, creating unacceptable highway safety risks that could not be mitigated by conditions.
