Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed advertisement on public safety, with particular regard to highway safety for users of Hornchurch Road (A125)

What decided it

The prominence of the new internally illuminated digital advertisement with changing imagery would materially distract road users at a point where full concentration on the road ahead is required to safely navigate the busy junction, thereby causing material harm to public safety.
