Why it was refused

  1. The development due to its siting and scale would result in a detrimental impact on highway and pedestrian safety as it would limit the view of the nearby bus shelter, contrary to Policy DM29 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018) and Policy T4 of the London Plan (2021).

From the council's decision notice.
