Draft Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 1064

Received: 12/02/2017

Respondent: Mr Callum Hall

Representation Summary:

Your policy reads well but the housing areas proposed for Balsall Common do not follow it.

If you are going to build 800 homes you can put in a new bus route to service it. Wherever you build houses they will be within half an hour's walk of Berkswell train station .

The simplest way to manage congestion and access id to build housing where the road capacity is, and avoid putting it at the wrong end of a village. Balsall Common development should be at the north of the village, with perfect access to motorways and HS2.
