The Council has, therefore, opted for a spatial strategy that places large numbers of houses in rural locations away from the main centres of employment and where car-borne travel and related congestion would be an inevitable outcome. There seems to be little or no relationship between the Council's Transport Strategy, Solihull Connected, its priorities and implied spatial strategy, and the allocation of over 1000 houses in Knowle (and elsewhere in the rural areas). The Strategy therefore fails to achieve its fundamental aim of a sustainable pattern of development.
In response to the Draft Local Plan Review I would like to make my opinion known it that I agree with the response of the Knowle Dorridge and Bentley Health Neighbourhood Forum.
