FORMER POUNDSTOP WAREHOUSE, CRISMILL LANE, THURNHAM, KENT, ME14 4NT

 

 

 

Representations

Further e-mails have been received from a neighbouring property on the grounds of highway safety and safety for users of the public footpath.

Officer comments

The conflict between pedestrians and horses using the lane and vehicles would already occur, as this is an existing road. Due to the narrowness of Crismill Lane, speeds are unlikely to be high and there are therefore considered to be no significant safety issues associated with additional traffic.

The Highways Engineer has considered the issues of additional traffic, visibility in Crismill Lane and at the junction with the A20, and parking, and has reaffirmed that she has no objections to the proposals. She is confident that there are no significant highway safety implications associated with this proposal.

Recommendation

The recommendation remains unchanged.
