I am concerned that you talk about the environment and air quality whilst also talking about increased housing on greenfield sites. Building on greenfield has a detrimental effect on air quality, as does more housing, but it’ll be existing residents who will pay the price, and get punished (probably financially) for the increase in pollution, even though they haven’t increased their carbon footprint. Walking and cycling is all very well, but if you live on the fringes of the towns, you need to be pretty fit to cope with the hills, esp in Lordswood and Walderslade.
