SIR – I would like to support what B Stone said in his letter (T&A October 27) about the proposed development at Buck Lane, Baildon.

In addition to being a wildly speculative venture, it will also destroy one of the few remaining green spaces in the Baildon area and inevitably create more traffic congestion on Otley Road, which is already an extremely busy route.

There are numerous empty commercial premises available to rent in this area. It is shameful that we are building over more green space with no guarantees that hi-tech businesses from the private sector will actually want to occupy this development.
