Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the site is suitable for the proposed development having regard to development plan policy and the accessibility of the site
What decided it
The site's poor accessibility and lack of sustainable transport options, combined with the absence of evidence demonstrating a local need for workshop floorspace that cannot be met in better-served locations, makes the site unsuitable for the proposed development in conflict with development plan policy.
