Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the works on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect on highway safety

What decided it

The works harm the character and appearance of a historic streetscape and create highway safety concerns through inadequate visibility and manoeuvring space, contrary to local plan policies, and this harm is not outweighed by the limited public benefit.
