Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the scope of the proposed works is within that covered by Class Q, in particular Q.1(h)
  • Whether prior approval is needed as to the transport and highways impacts of the development

What decided it

The proposal falls within the scope of Class Q permitted development and prior approval is not required because the highway safety impacts, including access visibility and parking provision, are acceptable and do not warrant prior approval under the GPDO.
