How schemes in Kidderminster get decided.
Two councils involved
Wyre Forest District Council decides the planning application, but Worcestershire County Council is the highway authority and gives the highways response. We deal with both, so the evidence suits the county’s standards as well as the local plan.
What shapes schemes in Kidderminster
A former carpet town on the Stour, with a ring road and a station on the Birmingham to Worcester line. In the centre, the questions are servicing, parking and how people walk to the shops and the station. On the edges, it’s access, visibility and the main junctions.
Roads, rail and buses
The main roads are the A449, A451 and A456. There’s a railway station, so the walking and cycling route to it counts for a lot in any application.
