Sandwell Local Plan - Reg 19 Publication

Justification

Representation ID: 1329

Received: 01/11/2024

Respondent: Miss Manisha Patel

Representation Summary:

Due to the overcrowding wouldn't it be better to build houses where there is more space such as green belt areas/country side instead of forcing people to live on top of one another. If we could spread out a bit more, people would have more space, reduce traffic, reduce burdens on services, increase jobs.
We could then turn those brownfield sites into green spaces - re-wild urban areas and make them more 'green'. I think there are other more sustainable and more efficient ways of increasing housing than continuing building on already built areas like Sandwell.

Representation Summary:

I support this. It would be great if more green trails could be created around Sandwell and the wider West Midlands.
As mentioned there are green spaces in Sandwell but they are not joined up, access is hard without a car. It would be great if we had green, clean, safe, urban walking routes linking parks, heritage sites and canal routes around Sandwell. It would encourage more people to get out walking, to discover Sandwell, to discover the benefits of walking and not rely on your car to find green spaces to explore.
