Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • the safety of the highway network, with particular regard to the safety of pedestrians using Hillingdon Road

What decided it

The proposal would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of this part of Hillingdon Road and would compromise pedestrian safety through inadequate visibility splays, contrary to the development plan.
