Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would meet the condition of Paragraph MA.2(2)(a) with particular regard to transport and site access
What decided it
The proposal fails to demonstrate acceptable transport impacts and safe site access due to inadequate parking provision, restricted on-street parking availability, pedestrian-vehicle conflict risks at the confined frontage, and inability to provide cycle and bin storage within the scope of permitted development rights.
