Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the siting and appearance of the proposed installation on the safety and convenience of pedestrians passing along the highway with particular regard to the needs of disabled people
- if any harm would occur, whether this is outweighed by the need for the installation to be sited as proposed, taking into account any suitable alternatives
What decided it
The need for the installation to be sited as proposed, supported by an extensive site search demonstrating no suitable alternatives, outweighed the harm to character and appearance of the area.
