Hockley Area Action Plan - Issues and Options

Representation ID: 15071

Received: 27/04/2009

Respondent: Miss S Joyce

Representation Summary:

3.8.1 'Three or four storeys can be easily accommodated.'

Hockley is a village, not a town, mainly bungalows. We don't need, or want a 4 storey Tesco and right near a road junction too. Don't start a precendent for high rise in our village and cause more traffic to wait around at junctions. You will put our local traders out of business as well.

3.9.3 'Potential for roundabout to be removed.' By putting traffic lights instead will cause massive traffic delays. As a driver I can state it is easier and quicker to go over a roundabout, than being held up at traffic lights. There are queues of traffic going through between 4-6pm and traffic lights will cause more delay. There is no problem crossing at the Spa, there are two pedestrian crossings already.
