Aldridge as part of Walsall Council is also part of "The Black Country in terms of Planning and Development"

Black Country Core Strategy: Have your say on the Preferred Strategy for the Black Country

The Black Country has a distinctive character and strong communities. Local people have strong ties to their area and are justly proud of the Black Country�s heritage.

However, the Black Country is also an area facing considerable social, economic and environmental challenges. To address these we need to build more homes to meet future needs, attract new jobs, shape the growth of town centres and transform the environment. Our vision is to create a Black Country where people want to live and provide a wide range of job opportunities.

The four Black Country Local Authorities of Dudley MBC, Sandwell MBC, Walsall MBC and Wolverhampton City Council are producing a Core Strategy. This will be a �spatial planning document� which will guide the delivery of more than 60,000 new homes across the Black Country between now and 2026, supported by new shops, offices, leisure, transport and environmental improvements.

In your area this will cover :
the location and type of future housing developments
where jobs should be located
how people can move around the Black Country
the location and size of new shopping, leisure and cultural facilities
protection and improvement of the natural and built environment
how to address the needs of the Black Country�s diverse communities

Based on what people have told us so far we have identified a series of �regeneration corridors� where this change will be focussed. These are shown on the map overleaf. The Core Strategy will affect all areas in the Black Country both inside and outside the corridors. Inside the corridors change will be focussed on delivering new homes and employment. Outside the corridors, in places such as Aldridge and Streetly, the focus will be on protecting and enhancing what is good.

More information including detailed proposals for the regeneration corridors and the centres of Brierley Hill, Walsall, West Bromwich and Wolverhampton can be found in the Core Strategy Preferred Options document. This can be viewed at the First Stop Shop, Walsall Civic Centre, at Aldridge & Streetly Libraries and Core Strategy On-line Copies can be sent to you by requested using this E-mail link
Other information available includes a summary of consultation responses received so far and technical evidence.

It�s Your Core Strategy

Whether you work, live, play or invest in the Black Country, it is you that will make this a living document.

We need to receive your views on this strategy up to 28th April. A representation form can be obtained from the places listed above. Further details are available from contacting:
