Representation Summary:
Policy CSP3
CPRE objects to the inclusion of the Neighbourhood Growth Areas (NGAs) in Policy CSP3 (b). They are identified as ‘highly’ sustainable. There is no definition of what highly sustainable means, nor can there be when there is no specific test to be applied to this term. In fact, their locations are in some cases in the least accessible areas of the Black Country.
Sandhills is at the very edge of the Black Country, as is the proposed Aldridge site. Accessibility by bus is limited because of their locations.
