Received: 04/09/2019

Respondent: Mark Williams

Representation Summary:

Ffordd Triban is a narrow cul-de-sac, negotiating it is already extremely difficult, vehicles parked on the roadside already cause a severe hindrance to existing traffic, let alone emergency service vehicles. 'Riding' the pavement to pass each other is the only option when a single car is parked on the roadside. Waste collection vehicles already cause temporary grid lock each week. An existing blind corner further exasperates issues. Ffordd Triban could simply not cope with any increase in traffic and there would inevitably be accidents as a result. The site should be withdrawn.

Change suggested by respondent:

Due to the existing narrow width of Ffordd Triban as an access road and the existing traffic issues, the site (5) is unsuitable and should be withdrawn from LDP.
