Para. 685 - Object to assertion that area is well served by public transport.
- Dorridge train service not convenient for Knowle residents, given station parking issues.
- Night time return services from Birmingham to Dorridge are poor. See Solihull Connected’s references to Community Liveability Programme.
- Currently no bus service along Hampton Road.
- KDBH already has high car ownership, imperative that bus service is improved to enable Sites KN1 and KN2.
Paragraph 685 should be amended to reflect true transport provision in KDBH. This would accord with ‘Justification’ criteria in Para’s 268, 271 & 276.
