Why it was refused
- The applicant has failed to demonstrate that the location of the proposed development access would not result in an unacceptable impact on highway safety. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy T4 of the London Plan, Policy DP24 of the Bexley Local Plan, and paragraphs 115-117 of the NPPF.
From the council's decision notice.
