Local Dev Plan Site 245
I wish to register my concerns/objections,
Living in an adjacent road, I am fully aware of the current high levels of car parking in Streetsbrook Rd/Woodlea Drive et al delivering/collecting school pupils, so you would be adding a couple of hundred more cars doing same (on way to/from work)- and this is in addition to dozens more from the new Travelodge just around the corner which is soon to be operational. Its often chaos now...!
Also, anything up to 200 extra pupils to choke the school....and who would not have the Arden site for recreation - this is contrary to the site covenant which must be retained for current & future generations.
Solihull, where I have lived for 40 yrs, is now almost a full car park, Urbs in Rure is on its way out. Birmingham Airport planned ground retention (up to Lugtrout Lane) and new traveller facilities (arrivals hall etc) is designed to attract additional users=cars=more vehicular intrusion
