Im writing in response to the documents published.

Im a resident of Hockley where the services and facilities currently struggle to meet demand. I am concerned how the current services and facilities within Hockley will be able to support more people.

Building many more houses will place a greater strain on existing services, recreational areas, and mean a lower standard of living for all within the vicinity.

I would like to ensure that you are aware and considering plans for;
- Road congestion and improvement
- Public transport improvements (trains are already very busy)
- More local cycle routes as all local towns/villages are within cycle distance
- New Schools (currently 30 children per class)
- Recreational areas for children, teenagers and elderly with local programmes to help
- More Doctor surgeries
- More Dentist surgeries
- Hospitals - shutting Southend A&E is not logical with existing residents, let alone having more people living within the vicinity.
