RA28 New Development Using Rural Roads

The Council, in association with the County Council, will not permit developments which are expected to increase or to change the type of traffic on local rural roads where:

  • The road is poor in terms of width, alignment or structural conditions; or
  • The increased traffic would have an adverse effect on the local environment, either to the rural character of the road or the residential properties along it.
