Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development is a suitable location for housing having regard to the supply of larger family-sized accommodation and access to public transport
- The effect of the proposed development on highway safety
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The site's location in an area with poor public transport accessibility (PTAL rating 1b) conflicts with Policies BH4 and BH11 which direct housing development to areas with PTAL ratings of 3 or above, and no material considerations outweigh this conflict with the development plan.
Plan policies cited: Policy BH11, Policy BH4, Policy BT4, Policy DMP1
