SP1 does not stop habitat destruction, and does nothing to ensure that views of local residents are considered and honoured. "Streamlined and redesigned" suggest quite the opposite.
It would be easier to believe that "sustainable development" does not imply "environmental destruction" if there was a clear focus on redeveloping the large number of form industrial and commercial sites.
Impact assesments have either not been caried out or have been completely ineffective. For example, the Boar's Well area (bounded by Biolton Road, King's Road and Queen's Road) was a haven for a variety of wildlife until 2012, when 48 houses were built on the green field opposite Peel Park. Since then, kestrels, jays and pheasants have not been seen. Bizarrely, those houses could have been built on the site of the former Wapping School, just down the road, which remains, nine years later, a gutted ruin.
