Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on highway safety, with regard to car parking provision
  • whether the proposal would make adequate provision for air quality improvements, carbon offsetting, travel planning, employment strategy and construction training, public realm improvements, hospitality training, highways works and project management and monitoring

What decided it

The parking survey evidence demonstrating that the 28 remaining spaces would meet actual resident demand, combined with the absence of evidence that the loss of spaces would result in displacement parking harmful to highway safety or road network performance, outweighed the numerical shortfall against Policy T6 standards.
