We have enough problems at present with adding to them by adding additional houses
1) Roads - At present people are queuing from Kingswinford to Stourbridge Ring Road every morning and from Stourbridge Ring Road to Wordsley every night.
Same applies to those going to Dudley and beyond they queue from Kingswinford to Russels Hall going and Russels Hall to Kingswinford on Return.
So adding extra traffic or the slightest problem the system grinds to a halt.
2) Schools are over crowded, and some children have to travel out of area.
3) Only one A&E department now Wordsley & Corbett have closed
4) Bus services are being cut (Stourbridge to Kinver) or reduced
5) Police Stn closed at Kingswinford, Ambulance Stn at Wordsley closed, Fire Station now on reduced Manning
So increasing population will surely overload a already overloaded infrastructure.
