I object to any incursion into the Green Belt. Part of the housing requirement for Knowle, Dorridge and Bentley Heath is related to the Wider Housing Market Area. There are plenty of derelict and brown field sites in Birmingham that should be used first to accommodate Birmingham's housing needs before green belt land is built on, this would also reduce Knowle, Dorridge and Bentley Heath's housing requirement figures. Solihull council should object strongly to WHMA. The roads and junctions that would serve this development are inadequate. Infrastructure is already under strain.
