Representation Summary:

This comment is in regard to Draft Plan of Black Country Plan Regulation 18 Consultation (Aug 2021).

This comment is an objection to site WAH240and WAH238 for the below reasons
1. Infrastructure in this area does not support the creation of this 713 housing build proposal. there is already daily traffic jams within the area that tail back 1/2 to 3/4 mile. Traffic control has been amended in the area to prevent the high number of fatal and serious traffic accidents.
2. The number of houses proposed within this plan is completely unreasonable, the brown field sites within the Black Country will be more than enough to expand the population aswell as ensure that the people of Walsall are not forced to live in a poorly concieved/planned proposal that was concieved by outdated ideas. The Plan to build 713 homes in this location will build a location of misery for the occupants of the whole area.
3. Wildlife , [Redacted-sensitive information], and a host of other wildlife has made its home here this proposed build will destroy this area.
4. There is a geological fault (Vigo Fault that traverses this area.
5. This is a plan to build on a Flood Plain which will result in an expansion of this flooding affecting more homes in the locality.
