Representation Summary:

Policy CEN1
CPRE supports the emphasis on Centres and welcomes the inclusion of residential within the CEN1 (7). As well as meeting housing need and protecting the countryside such an approach will help to ensure the vibrancy of those centres. Particular consideration should be given to widening the socio-economic base of the Black Country, and designing schemes which capitalize on the transport links to the centres, such as access to the Chase Line at Walsall and the West Coast Main Line at Wolverhampton.
