Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 7656

Received: 12/03/2019

Respondent: Mr N Walters

Representation Summary:

Infrastructure requirements have been needed since Dickens Heath was conceived 20 yeas ago! SMBC has done little to address the problems! New sites will only exacerbate the issues!
Local infrastructure cannot cope with any more development, school is already oversubscribed with no area to expand. The village is slowly becoming subsumed into Shirley, Tidbury Green and Whitlocks End. Public transport continues to be woeful and residents are unhappy.
Flooding is a real and increasing problem, it is notably absence in this consultation.
No discussion of weekly power cuts in Dickens Heath, low water pressure and haphazard mobile signal.
