Authority: Broxtowe Borough Council
Appeal type: minor · Planning Appeal
Procedure: Written Representations
Development: community-institutional · Change of use
Inspector: Astley-Serougi B
Postcode: NG9 3FY

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposal on highway safety
Whether the need for the proposal outweighs the loss of general housing needs
The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupants with regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposal would generate significantly greater traffic movements than a residential dwelling but the existing access onto the busy A52 dual carriageway cannot safely accommodate this intensified use without demonstrated evidence of safe vehicle manoeuvres.
