SAVE HALEWOOD'S GREEN BELT
We urge the council not to consider building on the Greenbelt or farmland, but to utilise many of the other concrete areas within Knowsley. These would more than meet the current housing demand.
Why is this important?
What it would mean to the local community:
The loss of a tremendous amount of Greenbelt and farmland.
The loss of wildlife in the woodlands.
The loss of valuable open spaces.
Disruption of pathways.
Loss of natural break from the other nearby communities, creating an ugly urban sprawl.
An over capacity for local schools and doctors.
Heavy traffic on local roads which are not suitable for the amount of housing proposed. They are already heavily used and always in a poor state of repair.
More excessive housing would increase the carbon footprint.
Halewood would lose its heritage. It was in the Domesday Book of 1086.
Keep Halewood Cleaner, Safer and Greener.
