DUH206,207,209 (Worcester Lane Sites)
I strongly disagree to the building of houses on the land adjacent to Worcester Lane. Why would the local authority possibly want to build on a green land which is meadow land and arable farming land especially when there is brownfield land ready to be built upon.
Apart from Meadow and arable farming the land hosts home to an enormous amount of wildlife which with global warming is of the highest importance to protect this land for the future.
Apart from that aspect with the building of more homes the infrastructure Just cannot cope with, already the doctors schools dentists and another facilities in this area are at breaking point..
The traffic problems already are horrendous it's just a ridiculous situation for all the residents to now face.
The West Midlands Mayor has clearly stated that all Brownfield sites should be built upon before any greenfield sites are considered so why should the planners have put these sites forward? is it a case that they haven't really bothered to look deeper into the proposal which are totally unacceptable for the whole of the local community
