Dear Sam

Highway Authority Consultation Response to a Planning Application


APPLICATION NO: 24/00839/ADV

SITE: PHARMACY, 20 BISHOPS PLACE, WEST HOE ROAD, PLYMOUTH

DEVELOPMENT: Shopfront signage associated with pick-up prescription collection machine

Observations:

Although the LHA have no in-principle objection to the proposed signing, there are likely to be concerns with regard to the proposed prescription collection machine itself (possible on-street car parking issues associated with such a use). However, it is my understanding that a further application is expected relating to the principle of the collection machine in this location and as a result any concerns relating to the dispensing machine (and impacts upon the local highway network) would be commented upon as part of the determination of that particular application.

Recommendation:

The Highway Authority has no objections to planning permission being granted.
