Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 8162

Received: 14/03/2019

Respondent: Mrs Anya Schofield

Representation Summary:

The bypass is not necessary and is a complete aside to the traffic issues in and around Balsall Common. Local routes - specifically the B4101 to Knowle and the road through Hampton in Arden are key routes for those living in Balsall Common. As it is necessary to travel for all work and services (apart from the very basic level of provision in Balsall Common) these routes could not possibly cope with the extra traffic created by the housing proposals regardless of whether a bypass is created.
