DUH21 - Swindon Road / Lodge Lane / A444 Triangle
At present Kingswinford can be gridlocked at certain times of the day eg morning and evening commute. The biggest bottleneck is the Cross traffic lights. People try and avoid the bottleneck and use side-roads not designed to cope with the volume of traffic.
If the plan to go ahead with the addition of 550 houses the problems will only get worse leading to more pollution from car fumes.
Another problem is the extra pressures that will be added to the local dentists, doctors and hospitals.
