Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 19644

Received: 29/04/2010

Respondent: Mrs Pauline Young

Representation Summary:

There are a number of sites located opposite and within the new residential development on Rawreth lane (28, 35, 89, 91 and 203) so these are located in close proximity to public transport, supermarket, schools and leisure centre and only a very short car journey away from Rayleigh Town Centre, there is also good access to the main highways. This location once again is not in the proposed strategic location for housing as set out in the Core Strategy but yet it should be considered as a very viable location and should be in the Core strategy.

There are a number of sites located opposite and within the new residential development on Rawreth lane (28, 35, 89, 91 and 203) so these are located in close proximity to public transport, supermarket, schools and leisure centre and only a very short car journey away from Rayleigh Town Centre, there is also good access to the main highways. This location once again is not in the proposed strategic location for housing as set out in the Core Strategy but yet it should be considered as a very viable location and should be in the Core strategy. Also in consideration of the Rawreth Lane Industrial Estate, Rayleigh being allocated for residential status which is next door to the same development areas.Developments here would not have significant impact on the roads and infrastructure of any of the other district locations, this area is well located and has benefited well from recent developments. The combined sites have the capability to deliver some 650 dwellings. Please I ask you to reconsider the strategic locations set out in the core strategy in sympathy of the lack of infrastructure within the villages and town centres and consider the other locations where very viable large sites have been identified.
