Black Country Site Assessment Report
Dudley Appendix A Page 79 The Triangle, SA0025 DUD

As someone who lives near the said Triangle and uses the A449, Swindon Road, and Hodge Lane on a regular basis the thought of 533 new houses, with its expanding population, and possible 1,066 (minimum) cars converging on these roads is horrendous.
These roads are gridlocked on weekdays and more hold ups are caused due to almost daily roadworks. My daughter leaves home just after 7am in order to be early for work in Wolverhampton at 8.30. People arrive at their places of work stressed and anxious. Returning in the evening the problem can be even more difficult. Road rage and accidents. There are not enough doctors, dentists, schools, bin men operatives and shopping facilities in the area. Russells Hall Hospital is already overcrowded and under staffed. Car parking is already a major problem as one cannot find a space and it is difficult to keep important appointments at times there are not enough car parks in the area for the existing population.
Air pollution will increase causing health problems.
