This site is Green Belt and there is now little of this left. This site already has huge traffic problems especially when JLR is changing shift, we know we get it daily. An extra 700 homes is a new traffic nightmare to contemplate on top of the JLR traffic and workers going to the NEC and Birmingham Airport, which are 24 hour operators. The impact of a 700 home expansion in this area is totally inappropriate for the area especially Catherine De Barnes Village setting This plan needs vastly scaling back and setting away from the Damson parkway corridor route.

The site is within the green belt and there are no very special reason to remove it. The Grade 2 listed Field Farm will be harmed. It will definitely cause access and safety problems using the existing sports pitches. Damson Parkway is a key transport corridor between the Motorway and Coventry Road that has been negatively affected by the JLR expansion. An extra 700 homes will probably add another 1400 cars creating more traffic and pollution. The access point opposite Spire Hospital/Rayner House causes a safety problem. There are no plans for additional schools/places to cope with 700 more homes.
