Representation Summary:

There are also massive implications regarding traffic and pollution, he added, with the area simply unable to cope with a daily spike of thousands of extra cars joining the Aldridge Road rush hour. This situation has been made worse due to the development of Netherhall Park.
The traffic level currently at the Old Horns/Asda Queslett is already at breaking point, there are accidents/incidents every week, with the level pollution extremely high. A planning application for the site next to Asda was turned down due to traffic levels at this junction. By building more housing on the Queslett Road site would mean further traffic in that area resulting into more gridlocked roads.
