Traffic around this area is unbearable at certain times and becomes grid locked frequently.
Also noise and light pollution will be a problem, let alone a real threat to local wildlife
Hello SMBC. It is rare for me to complain about future plans from SMBC. However I feel so strongly about the whole idea of moving the new council dump/recycling centre to Damson Parkway. I have lived in *** for nearly 18 years and in that time the airport has been expanded which I was completely in favour for. Then the "travellers" permanent site. Then the JLR expansion into a green field site across from the football ground. Currently the area is in chaos because of the new logistics centre again for JLR, and whatever future problems and polutates that will bring. Solihull Moors are expanding and only becoming a bigger club, which again is great news for them. Elmdon Park is a beautiful natural haven for wildlife and a fabulous asset for Solihull. However this proposal for a new DUMP in a green field site to be so close to a residential area that has endured so much in the last decade is beyond belief. Surely you can see this from the residents side. Traffic around this area is unbearable at certain times and becomes grid locked frequently. With the proposal of a new public access DUMP will only add to the misery the local residents. Also noise and light pollution will be a problem, let alone a real threat to local wildlife. Just 7 years ago Solihull was voted best place in the UK to live, I was proud of that but now, I feel persecuted for choosing to live here. A very disgruntled rate payer.
