Draft Regulation 18 Sandwell Local Plan

Representation ID: 740

Received: 18/12/2023

Respondent: Mr Jon Green

Representation Summary:

Support these proposals. Should also look at ways to reduce parking, particularly on street as it obstructs vehicles and would provide opportunity for cycle lanes - numerous studies show cyclists will spend more at a high street than car drivers. Could relocate parking into Aldi and Atkins Lane - not sure if the whole bus interchange is really required? Could do a smaller one - never see more than 2 buses there (one parked, one loading/unloading)
