A housing project in Bingley, which plans to convert an office building into 139 flats, faces delays due to safety concerns regarding cricket balls from the nearby Crossflatts Cricket Club. Sport England has criticized the developers’ risk assessment, claiming it lacks input from a qualified consultant and fails to account for the speed and direction of cricket shots. The assessment initially proposed a 10ft fence to protect future residents, but Sport England argues that this may not adequately address the risks posed to people and property. A decision from Bradford Council on the matter is pending.
