Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on highway safety
What decided it
The absence of a turning area within the site would cause vehicles to reverse onto the highway with limited visibility due to on-street parking, creating an unacceptable impact on highway safety on the classified road.
Applying Policy S4, the modest benefits of the proposal (safer parking for the family, reduced pressure on on-street parking, and potential for electric vehicle charging) would be substantially outweighed by the unacceptable effects with regard to highway safety and conflict with Policy TR6 of the Framework.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy T4 of the Barnsley Local Plan
- Judgments
- Holborn Studios Ltd v The Council of the London Borough of Hackney [2017] EWHC 2823 (Admin)
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
