Neither congestion nor air pollution are particular problems related to traffic in Offchurch. However, I was disappointed to see no referenece to road safety here, as this is the major concern highlighted in the Offchurch Plan. Whilst I understand that significant investment in road safety measures in the towns has perhaps lowered the profile of road safety in the urban areas, it is still a significant issue in Offchurch and I would definitely like to see your Local Plan address it.
The Offchurch Plan data showed that the village is divided between those who would support low housing growth (Scenario 1) and those who would like some new housing to respond to a need for both the young and the elderly to be able to stay in the village.
