Disproportionate level of housing in Shirley/Blythe area, whereas other areas eg Dorridge not taking share. Loss of green belt/openness impacts on recreation opportunities and health and well-being. Plan fails requirement to compensate for level of loss. New site will increase volume of traffic on Bills Lane and Haslucks Green Road and air pollution, narrows gap to Dickens Heath and encloses former Site 13.
Please find attached the response from the Green Party team in Shirley West ward to the Draft Local Plan supplementary consultation.
For the avoidance of doubt, our specific concerns relate to the 3 Shirley wards, Blythe and the sites mentioned in the letter.
