We wish to lodge our objection to this proposal. One of the reasons we love our home is the greenbelt land close to it, our close access to the walks, the wildlife and health benefits of this land, all of which would be destroyed by the housing development of the triangle! Kingswinford & Wall Heath have already had heavy development with 2 new houses estates and a third currently in development at the top of Stallings Land plus the new houses estate on the Brownfield Kettley field site. This already puts a massive strain on our local services with local NHS having long waiting times unable to come with the volume of people in the area. GP surgeries are also unable to cope. The local schools already full which would only worsen with mass number of people/ families this would bring into the area, and there is a strain on local amenities with no investment in our parks, Youth clubs/centres on Sports facilities.
The roads are also incredibly busy and cant cope with the traffic, a journey which should take minutes can take half an hour because of too much congestion each home would have a minimum of one or two cars the road cannot cope with the further influx of traffic, not too mention the increase in air pollution!
You promised to use brownfield sites not greenbelt, this is a greenfield site and the loss would be devastating to us all, the local wildlife, the use of agricultural land. It is also used by many ourselves included as a place to walk, to help escape and improve our mental health.
This land needs protecting for our future generations and we wholly oppose this site being built on
