Why it was refused

  1. By virtue of its size and placement, the proposed 'communications kiosk' would represent an obstruction to the local highway by obscuring visibility between oncoming traffic on Dukes Street and emerging vehicular traffic at existing points of vehicle egress; Dukes Wharf car park and St Andrews car park. The proposal would therefore conflict with policies DM10 and DM30 of the adopted local plan 2014 and paragraphs 115(d), 116 and 117(c) of the NPPF.

From the council's decision notice.
