Representation ID: 32303

Received: 06/04/2013

Respondent: Mrs Catherine Theobald

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

Current public transport to the western end off the airport is inadequate. The bus cannot access the roundabout nearest to the church since the closure of Eastwoodbury Lane, meaning that parishioners wanting to take the bus to church have to walk the last 200 yards, crossing over a very busy dual carriageway in the process, where traffic does not feel obliged to stop for anything. If bus services are to be provided for the proposed industrial estate, the service should be provided from Rayleigh, Hockley and Leigh as well as from Southend to this area
