1. Parking of cars on the road in Windermere Avenue is already bad. General access for residents is a problem and it would prove extremely hazardous should there be the need for emergency vehicles to access the road.
adding extra houses would only exasperate this problem.
2. The obnoxious smells from the sewage farm show that it cannot cope with the present level of sewage, let alone another 500 families. This is despite the fact that we were promised the waste would be taken to the new sewage works in Grays over a year ago.
3. Where will the secondary school pupils go to school? There are already continueing arguements with ECC about the distance from Hullbridge to Sweyne Park. Park School was built for Hullbridge pupils.
4. General parking in Hullbridge is totally inadequate. Apart from Pooles Lane car park there are insufficient parking facilities for the doctors, the chemist, the Post Office, the shops, the Day Centre etc. etc.
5. Watery Lane will be ruined if changes are made to accommodate extra traffic and reduce flooding.
6. Simply getting in and out of Hullbridge at peak times is a major problem let alone adding another 500 families.
