Finally after allowing a number of potentially problematic planning application for sites on or near the Aldridge Road to go ahead, the Planning committee have rejected one.
The planning application asking for permission to build general industry industrial units on a site just off the Aldridge Road near the canal at Perry Locks has been turned down. Strangely not because of the potential hazards lorries could course on a busy road with a bend on it,but because the developers have reneged financially apparently, on an agreement to improve the local canal tow path .
While I am all for improving the tow paths on our canals and would welcome money from a developer to do that, I do think the potential danger presented by unknown amounts of lorries, trying to get on and off the proposed site, is far more of concern.It is a strange world!
A word of warning however there is a right of appeal for the developer.
