GOOD NEWS STORY AT MERRY HILL

GOOD NEWS STORY!

Metro trams will destroy this canal embankment at Merry Hill Shopping Centre in the Black Country, West Midlands (see photo) with a massive concrete viaduct to take the tram on stilts NEXT to the canal.

Instead, it can go on steel stilts directly ABOVE the water of the canal, at a cheaper cost and, still allow the popular boats and towpath to be used!  This is seen in Germany and France.

There will, then, be more room for small to medium-sized, eco-homes on the High Plateau above my landscape enhancement scheme that is against the rusty, metal sheet piling.

Only preparatory work has been done over the last two or three years, as can be seen with the drilling and excavations on the steep embankment.

PLEASE WRITE TO customerservices@wmca.org.uk, above asking for Metro tram construction to go on top of the canal on stilts to save Nature and the trees - a more positive, constructive and helpful alternative, if they really must destroy the UK's very last wasted, mothballed, principal mainline railway between Derby, Dudley and Devon.    THANK YOU!
