Responsibility for additional education, healthcare, transport, refuse collection burdens resulting from this development would fall on Solihull MBC. They have objected to these plans and so ongoing disputes between Solihull and the South Warwickshire Councils are likely if this proceeds. Solihull's local plan advocates only small-scale development. Hockley Heath has poor water drainage and Stratford Road is prone to heavy flooding. The development would negatively impact wildlife and biodiversity. The loss of green space would negatively impact existing residents. The A34 is already congested, particularly when the M40 & M42 have issues. The proposed developments would need to access the A34 which would increase accident risk. Development would damage the rural identity of Hockley Heath and the land is Green Belt which should only be built on if there are no practical alternatives.
