3) The access shall have a minimum width of 4.1m, for the first 8m from the nearside channel of the carriageway.
REASON: In the interest of road safety and for the avoidance of doubt.

The vision splays so described and on land under the applicant's control shall be maintained free of any obstruction to visibility exceeding a height of 600mm above the adjoining footway level.
REASON: To provide adequate visibility between the existing highway and the proposed access, and to make the access safe and convenient for the traffic which is likely to use it.

5) Before the premises are occupied all on site vehicular areas shall be surfaced in a manner to the Local Planning Authoritys approval so as to ensure satisfactory parking of vehicles outside highway limits. Arrangements shall be made for surface water from the site to be intercepted and disposed of separately so that it does not discharge into the highway.
REASON: In order to minimise danger, obstruction, and inconvenience to users of the highway and of the premises.

6) The development shall not be brought into use until a turning space for vehicles has been constructed within the curtilage of the site in a manner to be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.

REASON: To control the development in the interests of the amenities of the area.
(Policy BE8 S.B.L.P.R.).
