Key Design Elements update As part of preparing for the construction of Phase One of HS2, we are developing a more detailed design of the railway.

In the coming months, we will be inviting members of the public to view and comment on our planned design for the route across the River Blythe near Hampton-in-Arden and the Balsall Common viaduct near Berkswell Railway Station.

  • Berkswell Parish Council Response to the Draft Solihull Housing Plan
    Berkswell Parish Council Response to the draft Solihull Housing plan consultation 1. Introduction and summary 1.1. Summary 1.1.1. The Council’s general view is that there are significant errors and omissions in the site selection methodology. An overview is given in answer to question 2 and particular comments for the Barratt’s Farm and Windmill Lane sites. These errors and omissions are such that the results are considered to be badly flawed. 1.1.2. The Council has been advised by residents of other significant errors within the SHELAA that materially impact the scoring results. The Council has not had the time and resources to study these but will have investigated by the time of the examination. 1.1.3. The Council supports the inclusion within this version of the plan of brownfield sites that were omitted from the first draft of the plan. 1.1.4. The Council considers that brownfield sites should be phased for development during the early phases of the plan to allow time for any development issues to be resolved within the 15-year plan period. If necessary greenfield sites can then be brought forward if the brownfield sites slip. 1.1.5. The Council is concerned that there is no reflection of the Berkswell Parish draft NDP within the draft plan. 1.1.6. The Council welcomes the infrastructure plan but makes significant suggestions for enhancement. Berkswell Parish Council apologises for the length of this submission but considers that the issues are important and worthy of deep consideration with an honest attempt by SMBC to conduct a suitable and sufficient review of the draft plan proposals.

  • The Response of the Burton Green Parish Council to the Coventry Local Modelling Report, December 2016
    THE RESPONSE OF THE BURTON GREEN PARISH COUNCIL TO THE COVENTRY LOCAL MODELLING REPORT, DECEMBER 2016. INTRODUCTION This parish council considers that the projections of population and employment growth since the base year of 2013 up to 2034 may be unreliable. More importantly, we believe that the Planners have failed to recognise the impact of neighbouring housing developments on our transport infrastructure and in so doing have reached a conclusion: “the Cromwell Lane development does not have a significant impact on the total network delay or average speed” which is unsustainable. GROWTH IN HOUSING AND JOBS It is possible, if the Modelling Report is to be believed, that the population will grow by 18% and another 25,000 houses will be built in the period between 2013 and 2034 but it is also possible that these forecasts could prove wide of the mark. Projecting the future, in an uncertain world, is a precarious occupation whatever models are used, especially when it comes to predicting jobs. It seems that the consultants from Parsons Brinckerhoff, a multinational engineering and design firm, anticipate 28,200 new jobs in this period. For example, 15,000 jobs with the Friargate Regeneration Scheme, 4,250 at Eastern Green,1191 in the town centre and 5,000at Whitley/Whitley East and so on. Hopefully these assumptions are sound but they may be over optimistic. Certainly the positivity of this report conflicts sharply with the report by the respected Institute of Public Policy Research, “Britain in the 2020s.”According to the authors, the world of work will be revolutionised, with millions of jobs in retail and manufacturing disappearing as a result of automation and the internet.
