Significant expansion of the village needs careful planning. Lack of a phasing plan to show how growth will be managed across the settlement, alongside the construction of HS2. Primary school is full with no further capacity until new school is provided, and public transport is inadequate with infrequent services. No assessment of highway infrastructure has been undertaken to show how it will cope until a by-pass is provided. The Kenilworth Road has long queues at peak times affecting air quality and the health of residents. No ecological assessments have been published.
Would urge the Council to seriously look at building a new settlement to the North of Balsall Common as an alternative to imposing significant amounts of housing on the village
