Solihull Local Plan (Draft Submission) 2020

Representation ID: 10822

Respondent: Mrs Wendy Murphy

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

I am concerned about building proposal for site BL3. I have lived close to this site on Bills Lane for 27 years and the volume of traffic has increased due to building Dickens Heath Village and the Retail Park. I note access roads are proposed from this site onto Bills Lane if a new housing development were built. There is a problem here with traffic jam between 08.15-08.45 a.m Mon-Fri during the school run. Woods Farm would be lost to the community and a natural habitat for wildlife lost forever. Shirley is turning into a "concrete jungle".

Change suggested by respondent:

Site BL3 should be removed from the plan as it is inappropriate for the area.
