NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
A family whose lives were made a ‘living hell’ by a main road at the back of their garden have won a major victory.
Jackie McCormack and her husband, James, launched a legal battle against North Warwickshire Borough Council after their ‘quality of life and mental health’ began to suffer.
The pair claimed they were affected by constant rumbling, noise and fumes from the A446 Lichfield Road just six metres away from their £350,000 home in Coleshill, Birmingham.
They even wore ear plugs to bed and said they were unable to open their windows due to the heavy traffic.
