Why it was refused
- The proposed development, by reason of the scale and mix of uses served by the shared access, the volume and nature of existing and anticipated vehicle movements, and the absence of a sufficiently robust assessment of the cumulative operation of that access, has not been demonstrated to provide safe and suitable access for all users. In particular, insufficient evidence has been provided to demonstrate that the arrangements adequately address the potential conflict involving vehicles waiting to turn right from Netherhampton Road, or the safety and convenience of pedestrians, cyclists and other vulnerable users crossing the approximately 18-metre-wide entrance. The proposal has therefore not demonstrated that it would avoid an unacceptable impact on highway safety, contrary to Core Policies 60, 61 and 62 of the Wiltshire Core Strategy and policies TR4 and TR6 of the National Planning Policy Framework 2026.
- The proposed B8 industrial units, by reason of their height and positioning close to the boundary with neighbouring properties at Riddell Close to the east would be an overbearing and unneighbourly form of development having an adverse impact on those residential properties to the detriment of occupants as such the proposal would be contrary to policy CP57 of the Wiltshire core strategy, and policy P3 (2a and b) of the National Planning Policy Framework 2026 Nic Thomas - Director of Planning, Economy and Climate
