Proposed Housing Allocation 18

I object to the proposed development of 100 new houses in Sharmans Cross Road.

There are already too few sporting facilities so this will result in further loss. Sport England indicated Solihull is very poor position in the rankings.

Traffic and parking are already huge problems at certain times in Sharman's Cross Road - this proposed development will make it worse impacting safety and causing even more congestion.

The character of the neighbourhood will be deteriorated leading to a loss of light and privacy. Trees under TPOs must be protected.

Flooding is a problem - Clearly the development will make this worse.

Please do not allow this application to proceed.
