Campaigns

A petition has been launched to block a proposed travellers site in Wolverhampton – as city councillors had their say on the controversial plans.

Campaigners have pledged to fight plans for 1,300 homes on 284 acres of greenbelt land in Wolverhampton. The new development near Penn Common would stretch from Colton Hills Community School, the Beacon Centre in Sedgley, The Barley Mow Pub and Penn Golf Club.

Local Conservative Councillors and Stuart are demanding that the Labour-run City Council open the tips seven days a week, to help reduce levels of fly-tipping.

Wolverhampton City Centre businesses and shoppers would all benefit from a campaign led Stuart and local Conservative Councillors, backed by West Midlands Mayor Andy Street, to bring in free parking in the City Centre at weekends. 

Public transport, access to services and economic opportunities all need to be improved for Wolverhampton residents. That’s why we believe it is time to seriously look at providing a new railway station for Tettenhall, Aldersley and surrounding communities.
