No

1.5 Please give details of why you consider the DPD is not legally compliant or is unsound or fails to comply with the Duty to Cooperate. Please be as precise as possible. If you wish to support the legal compliance or soundness of the DPD or its compliance with the Duty to Cooperate, please also use this box to set out your comments.
The plans for the new development on Hollins lane again have failed to take into account the current situation in relation to traffic use. The road is very narrow and is not only used my residents but many who use the road as a through road.

There are no passing spaces on the road which requires drivers to pull into residents private driveways to allow others to pass.

Adding more vehicles to this would cause further danger and possibility of accidents. During the construction with machinery and HGV's the current road could not manage and would be seriously dangerous for the current residents.
1.6 Please set out what modification(s) you consider necessary to resolve your objection and make the DPD legally compliant or sound, having regard to the matter(s) you have identified above. (Please note that any non-compliance with the Duty to Cooperate is incapable of modification at examination). You will need to say why this modification will make the DPD legally compliant or sound. It will be helpful if you are able to put forward your suggested revised wording of any policy or text. Please be as precise as possible.
Using the Field on Hollins Lane is completely unsuitable for any development that would add to the traffic that currently use the road. Please use a wider road that has adequate pavements and room for two cars to pass with endangering pedestrians, cyclists and drivers.

No, I do not wish to participate at the oral examination
