Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of occupants of surrounding properties, with particular regard to noise and disturbance
  • highway safety

What decided it

The location of the site within a busy commercial estate comprising industrial activity, combined with the absence of noise-sensitive receptors nearby and the limited scale of vehicle movements, meant the proposal would not cause unacceptable harm to living conditions or highway safety.
