Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with particular regard to noise and disturbance
  • highway safety
  • whether the need for the proposed development outweighs any harm identified in respect of the above issues

What decided it

The significant intensification of access use resulting in unacceptable disturbance to neighbours and compromised highway safety could not be justified by the social need for the facility, as no evidence demonstrated the appeal property was the only suitable location available.
