Applications:

*H21-0442-21 Mr S Necker, 29 Station Rd, Tydd Gote

Erection of 4 bay garage with storage above to serve the proposed dwellings at plots 3 and 4, 29 Station Rd

Dwellings approved under H21-0489-20. Work on site not yet completed.

Council has several concerns over this development,

Highway safety: The roadway to the garages is only single vehicle width which could lead to hold ups in traffic on Station Rd which currently has speeding and accident issues under investigation.

Noise: A gravelled roadway running so close to the neighbouring property would have major impact on the residents use of their amenity.

Council recommend that should this application be granted that a tarmacked roadway be a stipulated condition.
