LDP - Proposed Housing Allocation 18

I am shocked and disturbed by the application to build 100 houses on the rugby ground in Sharmans Cross Road.

All the extra people would produce a great deal more traffic than there is already making it very difficult at rush hours. There is already much traffic and more would make it very unpleasant queuing and crawling along the roads. Extra traffic causes extra pollution.

We need sports grounds to provide facilities for practising sport to maintain health. Solihull has low participation in sport and if this land were taken it would not help the situation.

Increased population would put extra pressure on local services such as schools and surgeries. This would cause longer waiting times for GP appointments and overfull classrooms or longer journeys to school.

To allow this development would lead to problems of overcrowding ans would change the character of the area.

Yours faithfully
