Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the condition is reasonable or necessary in the interests of public safety
What decided it
The location at a busy junction with frequent vehicle movements and previous collisions, combined with the extended visibility period for drivers, means that reducing the image duration to 10 seconds would create unacceptable driver distraction and compromise public safety.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- DM policy 19
