Localised carriageway widening along the site frontage is insufficient to address the main problem of School Road, which is that it is not wide enough for two vehicles to pass.
Offering parking on the opposite side of the road to the school does not solve the problem of road congestion, which is a problem currently and will be made worse should thie development go ahead.
A school car-park situated on the opposite side of the road from the School raises road safety issues for the school children.
The full length of School Road would have to be widened, to cope with the new development, addition of a footpath.
The parking problem facing the school cannot be resolved in this proposal.
