Objections:

1. The developments will change the village into a town which the local inhabitants vehemently object to. The population of the village will double .

2.The local roads will become gridlocked, each new dwelling will have on average 2 vehicles, so approximately 3,000 new dwellings will equal an extra 6,000 vehicles and will give an overall total of 22,000 vehicles which will completely overwhelm this local area.All current unadopted roads in Hullbridge (most roads off Ferry Road)will become not fit for purpose once drivers start trying to avoid the congestion,(Burnham road for a start)

3.Schools- With the massive increase in the Hullbridge population the current schools cannot possibly
cope.There is no plans that we are aware of to build any new schools and this should be part of the planning.Anyone that thinks this is not a requirement shouldn't be involved in planning.

4.Hospitals and Doctors -Southend and Basildon hospitals already at maximum capacity and cannot cope and we wait on average 3 days to book a doctors appointment .Therefor with a likeihood of an additional 10,000 new patients how can this possibly be accommodated in the current structure.

5,Flooding and flood plain.This has been mentioned time and time again but to no avail.Basically all rain water congregates towards Watery lane.North from middle of Hullbridge at Malyons lane,
South from the railway lines through the golf course,East from Coventry Hill,and West is slightly downhill from Battlesbridge. This coupled with the fact that the Watery lane is considerably lower than the fields on both sides is in my opinion road flooding waiting to happen.The ground will no longer be able to soak up the water once concrete driveways are built so watery lane will always be flooding after heavy rain .
the whole concept of all this planning has had no real thought process its just been a matter of 'well we have been told by central government to build a certain number of houses over the next 5 to 10 years so that's what the Rochford Council are going to do whatever anyone says.
