Village Housing Options and Settlement Boundaries

Representation ID: 61161

Received: 20/01/2014

Respondent: Mr Clive Bawden

Representation Summary:

I have concerns over whether the lack of appropriate healthcare and other services within the Hatton Park village can sustain another sizeable development of houses.

Were there no alternative to the need to develop further houses in the village, then I believe that the traffic calming measures identified in another proposed alternative (the discounted option 2, which includes a roundabout at the bottom of the hill approaching the village from the Birmingham direction) provide a concrete reason for preferring this option. Speeds, particularly those entering the village from the Birmingham direction are generally far too high.
