Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect on highway safety
  • Whether the proposal requires a retail impact assessment

What decided it

The cumulative harm from poor design and appearance at a sensitive gateway location, unresolved highway safety concerns due to inadequate traffic data, and failure to provide a required retail impact assessment could not be outweighed by economic and climate benefits.
