Heald Green is a village nestled among neighbouring villages and
the Greenbelt is a natural and valued divide.
The new Semms road has been built to alleviate traffic congestion
in the area and the proposed development of 325 houses will add
approximately 600 + cars potentially travelling towards Manchester
on the A34 Kingsway and through Heald Green village which is
already heavily congested.
The strain on schools, doctors and other services will exacerbate
issues already in existence.
The Woodford development and the proposed development in Handforth
and Cheshire East is already expected to add a further 1650 houses
to this area.
This sale is unquantifiable both in terms of cost and need by the
SST as detailed in their plans and at a local meeting.
The school claim "special "circumstances" which we consider not to
be the case.
The cost of the development at circa 45 million GBP is not
substantiated in any of the financial information supplied by the
SST.
The sale of Greenbelt for houses is not in the neighbourhood plan
and is deemed unnecessary by local residents.
The SST do not require the land for their own expansion needs and
therefore it should be refused.
