2. The proposal is regarded to negatively impact on the safety, health and wellbeing of the surrounding community.
3. Insufficient road infrastructure exists to accommodate the proposal.
4. The proposal is not supported by TCT: Transport and Development Control due to a lack of maneuvering space on-site and negative impingement on the surrounding roads and pavements.
