Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal upon highway safety
  • The effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The absence of an objection from Hampshire County Council as the statutory Local Highway Authority, combined with their assessment that additional on-street parking would not have a significant impact, outweighed the local planning authority's concerns and led to the conclusion that the proposal would not harm highway safety or character and appearance.
