No mention of role and importance of Motorway Service Area in policies P7 and P8.
Whilst Paragraph 270 notes that significant unmet need remains, it is not clear that in previous appeals the the Secretary of State had concluded harm at Junction 4 exceeded the location close to Catherine de Barnes.
Paragraph 271 is a serious derogation of duty and conflicts with paragraphs 31 and 182 of NPPF.
Circular 02/2013 notes "the maximum distance between motorway service areas should be no more than 28 miles". Exceeded in Solihull and negative impact on highway safety.
