Whilst these are a good beginning, they are somewhat pusillanimous. There is little but lip service provided to cycle routes, for example. Solihull has an inglorious history of slapping some paint on a busy road and pretending that it's now a cycle path of some sort. The development about to be started at Blossomfied Road incorporates the standard amount of cycle provision for Solihull infrastructure developments - i.e. none.
These developments offer an opportunity to, at least, build a new approach that offers true separation for pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles.
