Amber sites at Blue Lake Road (A5) and Golden End Farm (A4), if adopted, will completely destroy the character of Knowle village. The infrastructure will not be able to cope with the additional housing that will be built especially if the existing sites under consideration, Arden Triangle and Hampton Road are approved. There is already serious road traffic congestion through Knowle and these wholly unsuitable developments will completely clog up the village as new residents need to travel through the village to get to Birmingham or the M42. They are located on the wrong side (south) of the village.
