Proposed new homes site 13 South of Shirley estates
I am contacting you to object to the new housing estate planned for site 13 South of Shirley estates.
These fields are in constant us by residents in the area and it would be a great loss.
I do appreciate that more housing is needed in Solihull but It feels that these large housing schemes seem to be concentrated on this side of Solihull. A large estate in Solihull Lodge, Parkgate , further development in Dickens Heath, new houses in Cheswick Green, new houses to be built in Tidbury Green, all within a few miles of each other.
Would it not be wise to wait until these developments have finished to see the impact on schools, health services, traffic etc. before even more houses and associated families come into the area?
The appeal of this side of Solihull is that it is semi rural and this is slowly being lost.
