Respondent: Mr C Jepson
As a resident living on Ashingdon Road close to Brays Lane I would like to object in the strongest way to the plans for further residential development adjoining Brays Lane. The Ashingdon road is already over congested with traffic queuing in both the morning and evening. It certainly will not take additional traffic from the proposed new housing. We already endure the lorry's going up and down the lane all day.
Class sizes in the local schools are already larger than they should be, without additional schools class size will increase further with this development negatively impacting on the education of our children.
I am also concerned that we already have to wait days for a doctors appointment, all additional housing will do is create even longer waiting lists.
These areas are one of the few green belt areas we have left, I personally enjoy walking my dog there, we should be doing everything we can to protect it, not giving it up for yet more housing that the infrastructure of Ashingdon and Rochford just can't sustain.
I am both disappointed and outraged the plan is being seriously considered; this will bring no benefits to existing residents and will impact greatly on their lives.
