Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the disputed condition is required in order to prevent highway safety issues

What decided it

The Council's daytime luminance restriction was not supported by technical evidence and conflicted with national guidance, whereas the appellant's proposed standards aligned with ILP guidance and were adequate to address the genuine highway safety concern during hours of darkness.
