Outside the development boundary.
Contrary to GNLP Policy 7.4 347 as there is no safe walking route to school. The Discussion of Submitted Sites states “Sites which do not have a safe walking route to school, or where one cannot be created, will not be considered suitable for allocation”. Highways have confirmed it is not feasible to provide a footway to enable safe journeys to school.
The single entrance access is too narrow with no scope to widen. Highways have confirmed it is not feasible to provide a safe access as the carriageway is narrower than required for 2-way traffic.
