Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the safety of pedestrians, cyclists and drivers using Bridge Meadow
What decided it
The garage's inadequate door width means it would not contribute to parking provision in any event, so there would be no loss of useable parking, and the proposed side-by-side parking arrangement would not prejudice highway safety.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy ENV8 of the Warrington Local Plan (December 2023)
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
