Alternative Sites Consultation

Respondent: Dr Andrew Blanks
Alternatives to greenfield must always be considered first. This site, by comparison to the alternatives, is the least suitable for development. The road infrastructure is already overstretched around the University site and the greenbelt between Coventry and Kenilworth should be preserved at all costs. Consideration will now also have to be given to where the high speed rail link goes through this site. The plan also entails destruction of a coppice and a wood with its attendant wildlife.
