My primary objection to this draft relates to the safe pedestrian use of the Hollins Lane highway that in my opinion is already marginal. If this, or any other proposal, for extra dwellings accessed from Hollins lane is adopted then in my opinion Hollins Lane should be closed to through motorised vehicular traffic wider than say 1000mm by the provision of bollards or similar control measure, such that unrestricted vehicular access to the lower part of Hollins lane up to, but excluding Swinnate Road, should be only from Briery Bank and similar access to the upper part of Hollins lane, down to and including Swinnate Road should be exclusively from Silverdale Road. I believe that such a traffic management scheme would protect and enhance pedestrian safety whilst preserving the considerable amenity and charm of the Hollins lane environment.
I am also concerned that a robust provision for the management of the “public open space” should be a pre-condition of any planning adoption based on the current suggestion.
