Why it was refused

  1. The applicant has failed to demonstrate that the removal of condition 7, so as to remove the requirement for the installation of bollards fronting Anchor Hill and Barley Mow Lane, would not lead to indiscriminate and unsafe car (and other motorised vehicle) parking on the pavement to the front and side of the hot food takeaway premises, and that it would thus not cause detriment, danger and inconvenience to pedestrians and other road users, and that it would not interfere with the free flow of traffic on the adjoining highways of Anchor Hill and Barley Mow Lane, contrary to Policy CS18 'Transport and accessibility' of the Woking Core Strategy (2012), Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) Hot Food Takeaway (2014), the provisions of Section 9 'Promoting sustainable transport' of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) (December 2024) (particularly paragraph 117) and the objectives of the Surrey Transport Plan (LTP4) 2022-2032 "To improve road safety and the security of the travelling public in Surrey".

From the council's decision notice.
