However council planners who recommended approval said they were satisfied the higher number of homes proposed was suitable for the site. At a meeting on Wednesday, objector David Chivers raised concerns over drainage issues at the site and said it would cause more flooding to the Cwmgelli Villas area. Mr Chivers also raised concern over the impact of the additional homes on traffic in the area which he said is “bad enough now”. Blackwood councillor Kevin Etheridge said there had been “a significant change” under the reserved matters application. He questioned why an environmental impact assessment was not required to be submitted as part of the plans.

Residents asked to feedback on plans for low traffic neighbourhood in Cheadle Heath and Cheadle
Residents in Cheadle Heath and Cheadle, Stockport are being asked how they’d like to improve the streets where they live
Low-traffic neighbourhoods, known locally as Active Neighbourhoods, focus on prioritising the movement, health and safety of people over cars by using planters or bollards to stop rat-running on residential streets.
These innovative schemes typically create quieter streets for residents to chat and for children to play, as well as making trips to schools and the shops safer.
