I have seen no publicity regarding this Pre-public Consultation which I find disappointing.
The issue I have with this plan is the impact on the already over used highway, Hollins Lane. It is narrow with no official passing places , only the junction with Swinnate Road and private driveways, and no pavements. Hollins Lane from Silverdale Road to the proposed site entrance is a little wider than from the proposed site access to Swinnate Road junction. Vehicles exiting the proposed access road would pose a serious hazard to traffic travelling up Hollins Lane towards Silverdale Road, not helped by the plan to retain the existing trees/bushes.
If access to through traffic could be prevented then the risk could be reduced.
Hollins Lane from the access road to Silverdale Road could be two way traffic with the remainder of Hollins Lane being one way from Briery Bank.
Hollins Lane and Swinnate Road should also be designated 'Access for residents only' or 'No entry except for access'
