Proposed Development

 

*4.6     Full Planning Permission: 3 no. single storey dwellings with parking and access at Leeks Farm, 8 - 10 Orchard Field (land to rear), Cranford for Mrs A Buckley

 

            Application No: NK/2021/0302

 

Speaker:

 

Samantha Waters-Long submitted a written statement as a third party objector to the proposed development which stated that Highways Agency guidance included that the access road should not support more than 5 dwellings. The access lane in question currently supports 4 properties The proposed plan to build 3 additional properties from the planning application would have  this access road extremely congested and make accessing the main high street through Cranford very dangerous.

 

Decision

 

Members received a report about a proposal for which full planning permission was being sought for erection of 3 no. single storey dwellings with parking and access.

 

Members raised questions in relation to highway guidance on the housing capacity of private roads. It was stated to members that this historic guidance offered no justification and that the proposed development was safe in highway terms.
