Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on highway and pedestrian safety
- The effect of the use on the living conditions of the occupiers of surrounding residential properties in respect of noise and disturbance
- Whether the submitted plans (appeal B) are sufficiently detailed
What decided it
The lack of on-site vehicular turning facilities combined with the intensity of vehicle turnover would cause unacceptable harm to highway and pedestrian safety and severely interrupt traffic flow on Allerton Road, and the absence of a noise survey prevented conclusion that neighbouring residential amenity would be protected.
