Respondent: Mr E Cross
Dear Sir/ Madam
I wish to register my objection to the proposed devolopement of up to 500 new dwellings in the Watery lane Maylons farm area of Hullbridge by 2025.
My wife and I have lived in the village since 1973 and in that time the population has increased significantly with many new houses and lately blocks of flats,this has not been accompanied by any new infrastructure such as roads and drainage, if this development is allowed, Hullbridge will be gridlocked with the extra traffic and people this will bring.
Moreover, most of the land where these houses are going is prone to flooding already, where is all the surface water going when this is concreted over, not to mention the sewerage which is a joke in the village already.
My next point is the schooling for the extra children this will bring, the planners in their wisdom a few years ago decided to knock down a perfectly good senior school (The Park) because they thought it would not be needed due to falling population, now there will be thousands more children requiring a school, where will they go?
I could go on and on about the reason why this proposal is wrong for Hullbridge, but suffice to say that we and most of the residents of the village are against it,as was proved at the meeting on Monday 12th April in the day centre.
