Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed access arrangement on highway safety, with particular reference to the visibility at the junction of Sands Loke with the B1149 Holt Road / Norwich Road
- the effect of the proposed dog exercise area on the living conditions of nearby residents, with particular reference to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The significantly harmful effect on highway safety arising from inadequate visibility at the Sands Loke junction combined with the notable increase in vehicle movements, which would conflict with Policy CT5 of the North Norfolk Core Strategy and NPPF paragraphs 110 and 111.
Framework references: 56, 110, 111, 130
Plan policies cited: Policy CT5 of the North Norfolk Core Strategy 2008, Policy EN4 of the North Norfolk Core Strategy 2008, Policy EN13 of the North Norfolk Core Strategy 2008
