Dudley Council.
I would like to raise an objection to the proposed development of 115 houses on Worcester Lane within the current green belt.
This pandemic has highlighted green spaces as so important to people's well-being.
Surely there are far more suitable brownfield sites that can be developed first.
I feel that not only will this adversely affect the existing neighbourhood but will be a catalyst to the loss of further green belt.
There are also already localised flooding issues on the main road towards the end of this proposed development during heavy downpours - will further hardstanding make this situation worse.

I object to this for the following reasons:
I believe the local areas within these areas would not cope with the additional volume of traffic. These areas are used as cut throughs as it is and the bottle necks this causes during rush hour is manic. The road infrastructure and transport links are barely able to cope as it is. The schools in this area are over subscribed and senior school children are already transported to schools in other areas. I would urge you to consider the environmental impact to wildlife and biodiversity that additional residential urban build will have upon the countryside immediately surrounding Gornal and The Straits

All of the above land is land that I use for walking my dogs or land which I walk alongside. It is beneficial to my metal health and the mental health of the local population. and would have significant impact if it were removed for housing. This land has been a lifeline for many during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The wildlife lost would be tragic in the shrinking greenbelt.

In addition the local infrastructure is not appropriate for thousands o additional homes and residents. All sites are on very busy roads where numerous fatal accidents have occurred over the years. The congestion of traffic and the subsequent impact on health would put significant strain on the local NHS

Dudley Local Authority Area, Wollaston Farm grazing land - DUH217 - OBJECT

My objection is based on the following points:

To protect our local environment:
- The foxes will lose their natural habitat.
- This greenbelt should be protected so that local residents can enjoy green spaces.
- This is an important wildlife corridor - it should not be dismissed as a narrow piece of greenbelt, this is an area of historic importance which must be preserved for future generations.
- This area is part of Wollaston's history and identity.

To protect access to green spaces, public services and wellbeing:
- We have a right to access green spaces for walking and other exercise activities
- This will lead to a loss of bridleways and paths which have legal status to protect the right of way
- I am concerned that there is currently no access to this site - e.g. no roads that lead to the site. This would mean an increase in traffic on local roads - in particular on the Kingsway where the road is already populated with parked cars. The traffic and parking is particularly bad by St James' school at drop off and pick up times.
- I am concerned about the impact this would have on local infrastructure - GP practices are already struggling with the existing population and the local school - St James' Primary School is also at capacity.

Wollaston Farm (DUH217) - OBJECTION

As a resident and local walker of these footpaths and environs I most strongly object to the development of the above sites and support the further protection of Corbett Meadow.

In addition I strongly oppose other Councils, whose land abuts the Black Country from developing along our borders and thus further impinging and stretching ALL services paid for by Black Country Residents.

I object for the following reasons:

 All these sites provide valuable green lungs and a filter on air pollution
 Development would displace fauna, flora and wildlife, in effect ecocide
 Corbett Meadow is also a historic site

 These Green Open Spaces have and continue to provide recreational use that is so vital to “our” collective mental and physical heath and general wellbeing and in the case of the Corbett Meadow, the NHS who own the site should place a value on this and NOT go for short term gain.

 The increase in local population due to development would bring with it:

 Increased air pollution
 Impact upon an already overburdened traffic system ,thro’ congestion which adds cost to business and anxiety to the individual.
 Increased and unsustainable burden on Health, Education and other services.

 People do not want to live within a concrete/tarmac jungle and those individuals and entrepreneurs who are most capable, will seek to relocate, depriving the Council of both revenue and the most interesting of employment opportunities..

Representation Summary:

Guys Lane is already used by motorists as a means to bypass sections of Cinder Road and Himley Road. An additional housing development would further increase traffic using the existing estate, particularly at peak times, impacting safety on the roads and increasing delays.
DU218 is adjoined by woodland, and hosts a diverse range of wildlife. You can find newts, frogs, lizards, rabbits, and foxes using the space. Waves of bats can be seen feeding across the area at sunset during the Spring and Summer months. [redacted] use the green space. [redacted] are a regular sighting. The variety of birds using the site is equally impressive - Buzzards hunt the mammals/rodents, owls can be heard through the night, and the site is the only place in the borough where I have seen a spotted woodpecker.
Health and education services in the local area are not in a position to meet the demand of extra houses. [redacted] Booking times for the local GP surgery were excessive even before the pandemic. The additional housing will create additional pressure on these services.
If a development went ahead in this location, a visual amenity enjoyed by locals would be eradicated, along with the loss of the ecology and habitat for wildlife. The principle of the development conflicts with local and national policies not to develop green spaces.

I would like to object to the following sites being taken forward in your Black Country Plan: DUH 031 Majors Paddock, Straits Road DUH218 Guys Lane Paddock DUH 210 Viewfield Crescent Paddock
Whilst I appreciate the need to identify areas for development in order to meet current housing targets, I strongly feel that the development of the aforementioned sites is inappropriate for many reasons, details of which are outlined below.
CPRE has shown that there is space for over 1 million homes on brownfield land across the country- this is not a static figure, for brownfield sites become available all the time. By building houses on brownfield sites, you can ensure that homes are located where there is existing infrastructure and that people are more likely to live closer to where they work etc. This has many benefits, including vehicle pollution and people having to drive less or take shorter journeys thus decreasing traffic and congestion.
Since the start of the pandemic, we have become more aware of our appreciation of our local green spaces. These areas have been vital for lots of people, providing an open, safe space for us to exercise and take a breather during these hard times. We are more aware than ever, how much our communities would suffer if these spaces were no longer accessible.
The government released an updated version of their 25 Year Environmental Plan in May 2019; stating that they aim to: ‘ improve the environment within a generation and leave it in a better state than we found it’. It also states that one of the targets is to ‘increase woodland in England in line with our aspiration of 12% cover by 2060: this would involve planting 180,000 hectares by end of 2042’. With this in mind, reclassification and development of already established green belt land seems counterintuitive and contradictory.
One of the biggest current global threats is the climate emergency; as declared by the UK government in May, 2019. In the Campaign for Rural England’s report, Green Belts: a greener future, it states that undeveloped land plays a vital role in helping to tackle the impacts of climate change. In addition, The 25 Year Environmental Plan promises to ‘make sure that all policies, programmes and investment decisions take into account the possible extent of climate change this century’. The UK is already one of the least wooded areas of Europe, with just 11.7% woodland cover, compared to a European average of 37% . These statistics suggest that we should not only be safeguarding our existing green belt, but we should also be making plans to extend existing sites.
In the government’s National Planning Policy Framework , point 137 states that: ‘Before concluding that exceptional circumstances exist to justify changes to Green Belt boundaries, the strategic policy-making authority should be able to demonstrate that it has examined fully all other reasonable options for meeting its identified need for development’; with this in mind I feel that we should only consider brownfield sites an option for development. Our need for protected greenbelt is no less now, than when the policy was first introduced. These spaces are the lungs of our country.
Woodland Wildlife Tool Kit have developed an interactive map, which lists the Priority Species in an area using data from: the Bat Conservation Trust, British Trust for Ornithology, Butterfly Conservation, Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland, People’s Trust for Endangered Species, and the National Biodiversity Network. This map indicates that the aforementioned sites consist of the following land types: lowland meadows, deciduous woodland and grazing marsh. Woodland is useful for regulating air quality, climate through carbon sequestration and flood regulation. The map also suggests that there could be Priority Species on, or near the sites in question, as well as European Protected Species. The species that are listed as living on or near the sites are: [redacted], which are rare in the coun ty. Local planning authorities have a statutory duty , according to UK and EU legislation and policy, to consider the potential impacts of a development on protected and priority species and their habitats, and yet surprisingly, since 1970, the indicator of abundance for the 214 Priority Species has declined by 60%. I would argue that the development of any of the aforementioned sites would result in significant harm to local biodiversity, and would contribute to the further decline of our European Protected and Priority Species. We are fortunate to have the abundance and diversity of species in our local area, and the local community are committed to ensuring it’s protection for years to come. As well as the species stated above, we are aware that the proposed sites are occupied by [redacted]. The act of protecting our British Wildlife is synonymous with protecting our heritage and our local and national identity. The sites are closely located to Himley Hall and Baggeridge country park, and I feel that loss of the green belt in question will affect the identity and character of the area significantly; it is this character that makes the area a desirable location in which people wish to live, and visit.
As a resident [redacted], I am also concerned about the impact that development of these spaces will have on local infrastructure. including but not limited to, roads, schools, GP and dental services. I despair at the waiting time for an appointment at my local doctor’s surgery, and I fear that this is just going to get worse with the added pressure. Driving in and around Gornal is notoriously hair-raising, as the highstreet is narrow and there is a high number of vehicles passing through. This is especially bad during the week in the day time, and afternoon rush hour. Trying to exit Gornal in a morning (between 7am-9am) is time consuming; High Arcal and Brick Kiln Lane are particularly busy if heading towards Himley or Dudley. Traffic also bottle-necks by High Arcal School if travelling towards Sedgley. This is also another environmental concern as there is already a high volume of vehicles sitting stationary, contributing to air pollution.
To conclude, I absolutely cannot support the decision for the green belt to be reclassified. I am very concerned that both the strain on amenities and loss of the green belt would be a devastating loss for the area and will have a major impact on the physical and mental health of the local community. The proposed development contradicts NPPF in that in order to protect and enhance biodiversity and geodiversity, plans should promote the conservation, restoration and enhancement of priority habitats, ecological networks and the protection and recovery of priority species. I feel that the development of this land would be deeply regrettable at a later date; and unfortunately, once established woodland and green fields are gone, they are gone forever. I urge Dudley council to take a more ‘natural capital’ approach to the environment and consider the irreversible loss and damage to valuable soils, mature trees and natural wildlife habitats.

Pedmore, call for sites Worcester Lane, DUH 206, 207, 209.

[redacted] these are my objections to building on this site.

TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORT:
More housing in this area equals more cars in the area.The local village Hagley and Stourbridge town are already very congested and this will become worse.It will also cause more noise and air pollution.This is a quote from Dudley councils web site "The major threat to clean air is now posed by traffic emissions".

Peak time traffic is already gridlocked. The public transport in this area is virtually non existent meaning you really need a car to get around.

IMPACT ON LOCAL SERVICES:
Local schools are already at capacity.At a meeting on the 30th of September 2021 there were two representatives from Dudley council planning.When asked about the impact on local schools one of the planning officers stated that schools could extend and the birth rate is falling.The schools that would be affected by this new development are all small schools and do not have anywhere to extend and even if they did where is the money for more teachers and building work going to come from?I found this answer somewhat naive and alarming given that future planning is in the hands of these representitives.I don't know where they are sourcing their guidance information from but it is clearly not accurate!
Doctors, dentists and hospitals in this area are already stretched.

LOSS OF LOCAL AMENTIES:
If this greenbelt area is built on it will be gone for good.This area is used by many (not just local residents) for walking,running,cycling and horse riding.This became even more evident during lock down and to lose it would have a detrimental effect on peoples ability to excercise and their mental wellbeing.I am under the impression that that Dudley council is pro these matters.

IMPACT ON THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT AND ECO SYSTEM:
Loss of farming land.I thought we are being encouraged to buy local and cut our carbon footprint.
Loss of habitat for wildlife.The area has a very diverse wildlife.There are [redacted] to name but a few.

WORCESTER LANE PEDMORE - PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
I wish to object to any of the proposed plans for site located on Worcester Lane. The area currently struggles with the amount of traffice from both Hagley and Stourbridge. The schools are currently full and as for the comment made at the meeting that they could be extended I think they personally should think before they speak as our local primary school Pedmore certainly has no spare funding or space to expand . The land is currently green belt and should remain that way as there are plenty of empty brown sites that could used more effectively and in areas thatneed more housing.
There is also an abundance of wild life within the fields and surrounding area that would be greatly affected and totally runied.

I want to strongly object to the building of over 100 houses on Green Belt land on Worcester Lane opposite Bromwich Lane, Green Meadow and Bell Meadow for the following reasons:
• The loss of green spaces on that Green Belt land would be devastating to people living nearby and people using the spaces from surrounding areas. People need these green spaces to breathe, exercise, connect with nature and for mental well-being which is a top priority after living through a global pandemic - this continues and will for the foreseeable future.
• These spaces connect with the historic and important Monarch Way and Dudley Trail and would be lost forever
• It would result in the loss of habitat for wildlife. There are already national and global campaigns to save pollinating species
• Building on this land would irrevocably destroy the local character of the area
• The negative impact on the environment would be immense - pollution, traffic, having to install all the services to these sites. Any building would also impact negatively on the drainage in the area - parts of Worcester Lane flood already during heavy rain.
• Local services are already under pressure - doctors, dentists, schools etc - trying to service the people already living here
• Local roads and villages are already heavily congested, particularly the crossroads between Worcester Land and Racecourse Lane where there is limited capacity over the railway bridge which could result in increased danger to pedestrians
• It would result in the loss of agricultural land which is much needed to feed our nation.
• Brownfield sites across Dudley would be much more appropriate use for housing instead of keeping those sites derelict and violating the Green Belt. All the Brownfield options should be thoroughly exhausted and support for developers put in place to encourage ethical developments

Protect Dudley's Green Belt and Green Spaces from the Black Country Plan Developers.

Cllr Chris Barnett started this petition to Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council.

Green spaces and the green belt in Dudley Borough are under threat. The Black Country Plan has identified development opportunities on hundreds of green spaces across the borough. Green belt and green spaces in your area, near your street. Places that you love and care about.
Developers want these spaces to build houses. Not the houses we actually need. Not genuinely affordable housing. Not housing at affordable rent with a secure tenancy. They want to build houses that make them a profit and nothing else. We think the residents of Dudley Borough deserve better. Let's tell Dudley Council and the Combined Authority what we think of their plan.
There are plenty of opportunities for housing development in Dudley without using green spaces: Redundant industrial brownfield sites. Existing development sites, sitting idle because greedy developers are land banking them. Houses are sitting empty because they need improvement and refurbishment to make them habitable. We the undersigned wish to object to proposals in the Black Country Plan to sell parts of our green belt and green spaces to enable homes to be built. Development on these sites threaten to undermine wildlife and the general health and well-being of a population emerging from the pandemic that now places even greater value on them. Should this petition attract 3000 signatures, we would like the matter to be debated at a future meeting of the Full Council

The Severn Drive plot of land (SA-0199-DUD) is part of a recreational facility for the residents of Corbyns Hall Estate and is used regularly by children and adults alike. It is also used by residents who live on adjacent housing developments. Recreational facilities are few and far between in this area and losing this to yet more housing is not acceptable to the residents who have come to rely upon its existence.

Comber Drive is a very busy and dangerous main route through the estate. Many, many accidents occur on the corner just before it becomes Corbyns Hall Road. The residents live in fear that one day a car or van will career through their fences into their back gardens. The green space near to their homes therefore gives them respite both from the noise of the main throughfare and the fumes from passing cars but also gives them a peaceful and safe place for their children to play.

More traffic using Comber Drive will also give rise to yet more traffic accidents. Any development would also be overcrowded and unsightly.

The Bryce Road site (SA-0050-DUD) a much large site is also accessible from this route and would cause even more traffic to use the rat-run that is has become making the road even more dangerous.

The Bryce Road site (SA-0050-DUD) a much large site is also accessible from this route and would cause even more traffic to use the rat-run that is has become making the road even more dangerous.

Draft Black Country Plan

Representation ID: 22651

Received: 07/10/2021

Respondent: Barrie Harris

Representation Summary:

We the undersigned would like to submit our objection to the proposal that the plot of land bordering Butterfield Road and running along Severn Drive and the site known as Bryce Road be included in the Black Country Plan for housing developments.

The Severn Drive plot of land (SA-0199-DUD) is part of a recreational facility for the residents of Corbyns Hall Estate and is used regularly by children and adults alike. It is also used by residents who live on adjacent housing developments. Recreational facilities are few and far between in this area and losing this to yet more housing is not acceptable to the residents who have come to rely upon its existence.

Comber Drive is a very busy and dangerous main route through the estate. Many, many accidents occur on the corner just before it becomes Corbyns Hall Road. The residents live in fear that one day a car or van will career through their fences into their back gardens. The green space near to their homes therefore gives them respite both from the noise of the main throughfare and the fumes from passing cars but also gives them a peaceful and safe place for their children to play.

More traffic using Comber Drive will also give rise to yet more traffic accidents. Any development would also be overcrowded and unsightly.
