Highways Development Control objects to the proposal due to substandard visibility at the U51/B30 junction despite lane improvements, while DEFA Ecosystem Policy Officer raises ecological concerns requiring assessment; Flood Risk Management has no interest.
Key concern: Substandard visibility splay at U51/B30 junction
HIGHWAYS DEVELOPMENT CONTROL
ObjectionHighway Services Development Control opposes the proposal due to the road safety implications of development generated traffic using the junction of U51 and B30.; Visibility on exit of the U51 is significantly below the minimum requirement for the speed limit placed on the B30 at this point, and whilst vehicle speeds at this point are a lot slower, the visibility achievable is still substandard.
Conditions requested: Details of waste and septic tank operations required; Drainage details to be checked and agreed by Highway Services Drainage Team
HIGHWAYS DEVELOPMENT CONTROL
ObjectionHighway Services cannot support the proposal due to concerns over road safety, with the increased risk to road users brought by the additional development traffic movements.; The stretch of U51 from the site access is too narrow to accommodate passing traffic associated with the development; unless localised widening to create passing places can be provided by the applicant.
Conditions requested: Bicycle parking: two spaces per hut per Active Travel Wales guidance (1.8m x 0.5m); Details of waste bin emptying and septic tank frequency
HIGHWAYS DEVELOPMENT CONTROL

Conditions requested: Car parking minimum one space per hut plus 10% disabled; Bicycle storage secure and covered, minimum two spaces per hut; Passing laybys at 40m intervals, 6x2m (larger for horseboxes); Horsebox parking area
