Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the proposed advertisement on visual amenity
- The effect of the proposed advertisement on public safety, with particular regard to pedestrian movement and the safety of users of the highway network
What decided it
The cumulative visual impact of the illuminated advertisements on the Street Hub, when combined with existing illuminated advertisements in nearby bus shelters, would create an unacceptable level of visual clutter and harm to the character and appearance of Lewisham High Street.
