Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the details proposed would promote sustainable transport options for occupants of the development site and secure an adequate standard of safety for users of the bridges
What decided it
The proposed bridges would not meet minimum design standards for width and safety, would obstruct cyclist movement, create potential user conflict, and would not provide convenient routes suitable for all users, thereby failing to promote sustainable transport options or secure adequate safety standards as required by the condition.
