Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be acceptable with respect to highway and pedestrian safety, having regard to the proposed access, parking and servicing arrangements for the retail unit
What decided it
The unacceptable risk to highway and pedestrian safety arising from the proposed servicing arrangements requiring large delivery vehicles to manoeuvre in a constrained shared car park and the inadequate parking provision creating pressure for on-street parking near a constrained junction, which conflicts with Spatial Policy 7 and NPPF paragraph 114.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Spatial Policy 7
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 114
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
