Our client is promoting a site at Tipton Road and Setton Drive, Woodsetton / Sedgley, which lies within the authoritative bounds of Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council. Whilst this site would not form an SUE, it does represent an opportunity to provide a housing site within the urban area that could assist in meeting housing needs for the Black Country and wider HMA.

SLR would suggest that the minimum size for a Sustainable Urban Extension under Option H2 would need to be in the region of 500 units. The mix of uses, housing types and its overall accessibility would need to be considered on a case-by-case scenario dependent upon the findings of the SHMA and the sites location in proximity to existing infrastructure.
