Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 19553

Received: 29/04/2010

Respondent: Mr Len Wiley

Representation Summary:

Access via London Road is ridiculous as this road is already gridlocked at certain times due to traffic turning off onto existing developments. Hasn't the council already turned down a request for a very small sports club development due to the issue of traffic congestion on London Road?

Also, this proposal seems to be eliminating a potential green belt boundary rather than creating one!

There has already been too much development to the west of Rayleigh. More traffic will force even more residents to abandon Rayleigh town centre for other shopping centres rather than increase usage of the town.
