The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: Whether the proposal would be capable of providing a sufficient number of on-site car parking spaces, whether on-site car parking provision could be provided to enable suitable and safe vehicle manoeuvring, and the effect of the development on the free flow of traffic, highway safety and the living conditions of nearby residents.

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be capable of providing a sufficient number of on-site car parking spaces, whether on-site car parking provision could be provided to enable suitable and safe vehicle manoeuvring, and the effect of the development on the free flow of traffic, highway safety and the living conditions of nearby residents
What decided it
The proposal failed to demonstrate adequate on-site car parking provision and safe vehicular manoeuvring, and would unacceptably harm highway safety and traffic flow near a busy roundabout junction whilst creating unacceptable on-street parking pressures.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy DM1 of the South Tyneside Local Development Framework Development Plan Policies 2011
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 110Paragraph 111Paragraph 130
