Received: 11/10/2021
Respondent: Mr Steven Fletcher
Local Authority Area: Dudley MBC
Location: Holbeache and the Triangle
Holbeache - Ref DUH 208 - 330 houses SA-0017-DUD
Triangle - Ref DUH 211 - 533 Houses SA-0025-DUD
Objection - Building on greenbelt land
Reasons:-
1) Local infrastructure struggling now to cope with traffic levels through Wall Heath and Kingswinford villages. Regular queues form on A449 through Wall Heath and Wolverhampton Road via Kingswinford.
2) Doctors surgeries struggle to accommodate existing patient levels
3) Schools unable to accommodate influx of more children to the area. Local schools already near capacity.
4) Russells Hall Hospitals has long waiting times which will be made worse with larger population
5) Area has already been impacted by increased housing eg. Himley View
6) Government stated all brown sites to be used before green belt considered.
7) Both sites are close to major road routes. Eg. A449 and Wolverhampton Rd. These already buy roads will be made even worse.
