We would like to object to the proposal for new housing to be built in Great Wakering, especially the sites to the East of the village.
We live in New Road and already have issues with parking which would only be made worse if further housing was built in this road. Also the traffic will be made worse with only one main road out of Wakering. Will a new doctors surgery be built as already it is hard to get an appointment.
If the planned housing goes ahead Great Wakering will lose it's identity as will almost become part of Shoeburyness with no real gap in housing in between and will no longer be a small village. We only moved here at the end of last year and was attracted to this area due to the countryside location. It would be a shame to lose this for the current residents and for all the local wildlife we are so lucky to see here which would no longer have a home.
