1.The proposal is contrary to Policy HOU7 of the adopted Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan in that the erection of a two-storey dwelling at the rear of existing houses and approached by a narrow access track would have a significant adverse effect on the residential amenities of adjoining occupiers by reason of loss of privacy and/or noise and disturbance.
2.The existing private drive is unsuitable to serve the proposed development by reason of its severely restricted levels of visibility at its junction with the C457, which is a classified road under the Norfolk County Council Route Hierarchy. The available visibility at the site access does not accord with the requirements of the Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions' publication 'Places, Street and Movement'. Furthermore, the applicant does not appear to control sufficient land to provide visibility splays at the access to the proposed car standing area to accord with current standards. Consequently, if permitted, the proposal would be likely to cause danger and inconvenience to users of the public highway and would result in conditions detrimental to highway safety contrary to Policies TCM13 and HOU7 of the adopted Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan.
