This pre-commencement condition has been agreed with the applicant as it is necessary in order to ensure that no unnecessary harm is caused by the commencement of development works.
9) Before the development is brought into use a visibility splay shall be provided at the junction of the access for the new dwelling with Narrow Path. The minimum dimensions to provide the required splay lines shall be 2.4m measured along the centre line of the proposed access from its junction with the channel of the public highway and 10.0m measured from the centre line of the proposed access along the line of the nearside channel of Narrow Path. The required vision splays shall for the perpetuity of the development remain free of any obstruction to visibility.

Reason: To provide adequate visibility between Narrow Path and the proposed access, and to make the access safe and convenient for the traffic which is likely to use it.
11) The realigned vehicular access of Narrow Path shall be surfaced in bituminous or other similar durable material (not loose aggregate) as may be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority for a distance of 6.0m into the site, measured from the highway boundary, before the premises are occupied. Arrangements shall be made for surface water drainage from the site to be intercepted and disposed of separately so that it does not discharge into the highway.
