Concerned about expansion of Balsall Common village into a town. Infrastructure would not cope with the number of planned houses, with additional construction traffic on top of HS2 construction.
Riddings Hill not suitable for additional housing. The area is already affected by excess parking from the railway station, additional houses would mean more commuters on trains leaving cars at station that cannot cope. Worst a possible bypass on top of HS2, with more green belt lost.
More housing should be built around the Chelmsley Wood area with better shopping facilities, school and commuting network, and on brownfield land.
More housing should be built around the Chelmsley wood area where the shopping facilities and school would cope better than in a rural area. Better commuting network.
