I write to object to the proposed site GT19, Land off Birmingham Road, Budbrooke (green).

The proposed site is unsuitable on a number of grounds.
Any access would be from the busy and dangerous Birmingham Road which has a history of accidents around the junction with Woodway at Ugly Bridge and the entrance to the Shell petrol station.
The immediate proximity of the canal would be hazardous for the young children of travellers, and such a development would be detrimental to the heritage status of the Hatton Locks flight.
Of particular importance is the recent decision of the Planning Inspector with regard to the unlawful traveller site at nearby Kites Nest Lane, Beausale. The same reasons for the refusal at Kites Nest apply equally to this proposed site. WDC would be contravening the Planning Inspector if the Birmingham Road site was to be progressed.
