I am writing to express my views on the proposed development of the above area. I consider that if an area has to be chosen for this development, it would be best to develop the area south of Brays Lane for the following reasons:
There is already an area of development that was created on the north side in Victory Lane and Nelson Road, as well as Golden Cross Mews.
The increase of students attending King Edmunds School from this area means more will be crossing Brays Lane to go to school, this road is already used heavily by large vehicles and is a danger. If the development were on the south side, the pupils would not have to cross the dangerous road.
Another concern is that the Ashingdon Road is already very heavily congested. It can often take 15/20 minutes to get from Ashingdon to Rochford. The infrastructure is not sufficient to meet the needs of further development in this area.
