Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the appeal proposal on public safety
  • The effect of the appeal proposal on the amenity of the area

What decided it

The proposal would create an unacceptable distraction to drivers at a critical junction point on a Strategic Highway Network route, increasing accident risk, and would be visually intrusive and out of scale with the character of the area.
