Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by reason of the creation of a new vehicular access, would cause unacceptable risks to highway safety by virtue of its interference with the free and safe function of the marked bay fronting the site on Muirfield Road, restricted visibility caused by parked cars and the potential to increase conflicts between different users. These factors would combine to result in severe danger to the safety of road users and pedestrians and an unacceptable impact on highway safety. As such, the proposed development would be contrary to Policy CP10 of the Core Strategy (adopted October 2011) and the NPPF (2026), which seek to ensure that development provides safe and suitable access for all users.

From the council's decision notice.
