A CRASH that happened near a proposed 1450-home development has sparked more safety concerns from campaigners.

The multi-vehicle collision happened at the junction of Birmingham Road and Husum Way in Kidderminster, a junction which has been described by residents as "dangerous."

An ambulance was called out to the scene on Tuesday (April 30), however, it was later stood down as it was no longer required.

A photo of the collision was shared on the Action Against Woven Oaks Facebook page, with members of the group hitting out at the junction.

Sophie Swain, of the Action Against Woven Oaks group, says it's "not clear to people who has the right of way."

The group was set up against Taylor Wimpey's major planning application for a new housing estate, with a new access point planned to be created to Husum Way.

Mrs Swain added: "The junction is atrocious - it's an accident blackspot".

Wyre Forest District Councillor Fran Oborski described it as an "appalling junction."

A spokesperson for West Midlands Ambulance Service said: "We were called at 2.31pm to reports of an RTC at the junction of Birmingham Road and Husum Way in Kidderminster however, prior to arrival, we were stood down as we were no longer required on scene".

A Taylor Wimpey spokesperson previously said they are working closely with the relevant local authorities to ensure our proposals are carefully considered, including those related to a proposed three-way traffic junction and improvements to local air quality.

A public consultation on the 1450-home Woven Oaks development, off Comberton Road, was reopened by the developer last October.

Members of Kidderminster Town Council's planning committee unanimously agreed to oppose the plans due to road safety concerns, particularly at the proposed new junctions at either end of the development. The town council is a consultee, with Wyre Forest District Council being the decision-making authority.

The Worcestershire County Council highways team has been approached for comment.
