Planning analysis

Refusal reasons and planning conditions extracted from the public decision file.

Refusal reasons

Traffic Sightlines

The existing entrance is substandard and requires roadside boundary setbacks to achieve the required 90m sightlines, involving works outside the site. The applicant failed to demonstrate sufficient legal interest or consent over the adjacent lands needed to execute these works, creating a serious traffic hazard.

County Development Plan 2016-2022, Chapter 9.1 Roads and Transportation (90m sightline requirement)
The proposed development would endanger public safety by reason of serious traffic hazard because inadequate sightlines available at the proposed entrance and the applicant has not indicated sufficient consent/legal interest on the necessary lands required to achieve adequate visibility at the proposed site entrance.
