Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development has failed to adequately demonstrate that the visibility splays shown are achievable, or that they can be maintained and kept permanently clear of obstructions in perpetuity, nor that the proposal would provide adequate parking without vehicles overhanging the pavement. As such the proposal would lead to harm to the safe and efficient operation of the highway network and would fail to comply with policy DM11 of the Surrey Heath Core Strategy 2012, Policy WNP4.1 of the Windlesham Neighbourhood Plan 2018-2028 or the NPPF.

From the council's decision notice.
