Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 22109

Respondent: Miss Jill Renmant

Representation Summary:

I travel between Oxford and Wordsley for work and home and would like to object to all development on greenbelt and green space.
For the purpose of this form the main sites I would like to oppose are DUH208 (Holbeache), DUH211 (The Triangle) and DUH217 (Wollaston Farm Grazing Fields). I see these areas as gateways to development for South Staffordshire's border which would be catastrophic for the Wordsley, K'ford & Stourbridge area, not to mention the devastation to wild life and the environment. Friars Gorse and Ridgehill are areas of beauty and should be protected. Equally the Stourbridge Canal is of notable beauty as well as it's key part in our local history. as someone who regularly drives from Wordsley to the M5 I can catagorically state that the road network is already at a standstill.
Three Key Objections: environment / climate change / flooding; historical preservation; inability of road networks to cope.
