Description of
Proposal
Erection of a fence (in retrospect)
Address of site 117 Glenearn Road
Perth
PH2 0NW
Comments on the
proposal
The applicant is seeking planning permission in retrospect for a new 1.95m high
vertical timber board fence. 
An objection has been raised on the grounds of the fence obstructing right of
access, and on the grounds of obstruction to visibility. 
The South Boundary Elevation details that the 1.95m high fence slopes down to
0.95m high vertical timber board fence around the front garden.   The applicant is
requested to detail the vehicular and pedestrian visibility splays at the existing
vehicle access to confirm that no section of the fence within the visibility splay is
higher than 1.05m above the road level. 
More information is required for Transport Planning to be in a position to support
this proposal.

Erection of a fence (in retrospect)
Address of site 117 Glenearn Road

Comments on
the proposal
The applicant is seeking planning permission in retrospect for a new 1.95m high
vertical timber board fence. The South Boundary Elevation details that the 1.95m high
fence slopes down to 0.95m high vertical timber board fence around the front
garden. Glenlyon Road, on approach to the Glenearn junction, is subject to a speed
limit of 30mph. In accordance with the standards outlined in Designing Streets, a
visibility splay of 43 metres x 1.05 metres (measured 2.4 metres back from the
carriageway) is required to be demonstrated. On request, the applicant has
submitted drawings detailing the visibility splay from Glenearn Road (service road)
onto Glenlyon Road (Figure 1).  Figure 1 demonstrates that the applicant is not able to
achieve the 43-metre splay after the erection of the fence.

Transportation and Development is thus not able to support this application.
