Create access for a third way in and out of the expanding village this has always been opposed by the few houses in tettenhall that live opposite the bus lane, this is totally selfish on there parts. At present there are temporary traffic lights both ways in and out of Perton and creating a backlog of traffic, also during winter months heath house lane regularly floods and this agin backs up traffic we need another way in and out!
