Why it was refused
- By virtue of its size and placement, the proposed 'communications kiosk' would represent an obstruction to public highway land in a regularly used pedestrian route between the King Street and Carrow Road Football Ground, constricting the capacity of the highway to accommodate known demand and large influxes of footfall. The proposal would therefore cause highway safety concerns and 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.
