planning objection allocation 13
I would like to raise several objections as to the planning application on allocation 13 the proposal to build 600 houses on woods Christmas tree farm
WOODS FARM HAVE ALREADY CONVERTED A NUMBER OF BARNS IN THE GREEN BELT INTO RESIDENTIAL DWELLINGS CAUSING TRAFFIC PROBLEMS ON THE PRIVATE RD THAT RUNS DOWN THE BRIDAL PATH
The loss of several thousands of Christmas trees which are very good for cleaning up the air pollution is not acceptable

I am a local resident and I cannot see how you can build on green belt yet again with the poor infrastructure of roads the lack of shops to accommodate all these extra people no extra doctors surgeries.
WE struggle to get doctors appointments at the moment at Tanworth lane surgery.

The Stratford road is permanently grid locked
WITHOUT THE ADDITION OF THE EXTRA TRAFFIC FROM THIS AND SEVERAL OTHER PROPOSALS THE TRW SITE FOR ONE ALSO THE DEVELOPMENT ON THE OLD POWERGEN SITE IS GOING TO ADD TO THE CHAOS IN THE MORNING RUSH HOUR IT CAN TAKE 40 MINUTES TO TRAVEL FROM SAINSBURYS TO THE M42 CRANMORE BOULEVARD IS GRID LOCKED.
Haselocks Green Rd is a nightmare for people living on this road trying to get off there drives in rush hour I know of several people who have left the area because of the current congestion without adding to it .

Where are the additional children going to school with a proposal for in excess of 2500 homes to be built around Shirley
Solihull hospital is not capable of coping with the current population yet adding at least 10.000 extra people to their catchment is ridiculous you have to go to Heartlands a round trip of at least one half hours for the most minor of ailments.
Shirley station and Whitlocks end station have insufficient parking facilities NEVILLE RD AND SEVERAL OF THE ADJOINING RDS ARE CURRENTLY BEING USED AS OVERFLOW CAR PARKS MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO WALK DOWN THE PAVEMENT WITH A PUSHCHAIR BECAUSE OF ALL THE CARS PARKED ON THE PAVEMENT AND IF THEY DON'T PARK ON THE PAVEMENT IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE DOWN THE RD IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE ENGINE OR AMBULANCE REQUIRING ACCESS THIS WOULD BE A DISASTER WAITING TO HAPPEN.
We no longer have a police station in Shirley or surrounding areas recently when the police were required in Neville Rd because of a fight between groups of teenagers it took 20 minutes plus for any assistance to arrive by then it is all over and they have dispersed
AS A RESIDENT IN THIS AREA FOR IN EXCESS OF 35 YEARS IT IS ABOUT TIME SOLIHULL COUNCIL STARTED LOOKING AFTER LOCAL RESIDENTS EVERY OBJECTION THAT IS EVER RAISED GETS OVER TURNED
LOOK AT PARK GATE TRAFFIC CHAOS, SHOPS HALF EMPTY
LOOK AT SHIRLEY HIGH ST CHARITY SHOPS BANKS BUILDING SOCIETIES NO LOCAL SMALL BUSINESSES ALL AS A RESULT OF SOMETHING THE LOCAL RESIDENTS NEVER WANTED ASDA THE MAJORITY OF CUSTOMERS TRAVEL IN FROM OUTSIDE THE AREA THEY TRAVEL STRAIGHT BACK OUT AGAIN NEVER SUPPORTING LOCAL BUSINESSES.
