New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

Representation ID: 39445

Received: 21/09/2021

Respondent: Mr Richard Pryor

Representation Summary:

CFS059 Sandhill Road. This space is not suitable for housing, the road infrastructure in Sandhill is too narrow at the site entrance plus there is no public footpath for pedestrians to walk to local services. This is already an issue for the pre-existing houses, but any new development must take this into consideration. The road is also a Private Street, unsure if access can be granted accordingly? The density proposed is far too high, as many houses in that small site than in the whole of that side of Sandhill Road. Also a valuable area for nature would be lost.
