Respondent: Mr Paul Dundas
Legally compliant? Yes
Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? Yes
I am concerned about the deletion of the word “highly” in front of “accessible locations” in this main modification being deleted. If we are serious about transport modal shift and sustainable development all should be highly accessible either through existing methods or new as requited by this plan.
Accessible location is highly ambiguous. All locations are ultimately accessible by one means or another even by a one-way farm track so is really a quite meaningless term. Keeping the “highly” will enable a high standard of access to be thought about when detailed planning is brought forward including pedestrian, cycling etc..
Re-instate the word "highly" in paragraph 2.
