There is no point to creating a few new jobs, if driving to them on our appalling roads is a nightmare.

Rochford D Council are well known for taking no notice of residents wishes and opinions so here goes anyway:

A huge majority of residents feel the entire district is already (January 2018) over populated with poorly maintained and vastly inadequate INFRASTRUCTURE. What is the point of concreting over precious farmland and green areas to build houses, without improving the already over strained GP surgeries, schools, hospitals and roads that are often gridlocked now. Road traffic surveys are woefully out of date and inaccurate. If you listened to the residents our option is NO MORE BUILDING at least in the Rochford District at all, at least until all the above is vastly improved, other nearby council districts have their share of the new housing quota.

There is no point to creating a few new jobs, if driving to them on our appalling roads is a nightmare.
