I find your Local Plan for extra housing in the Hullbridge, Essex area alarming and very worrying for the following reasons.

How will the infrastructure be delivered to support these new homes. New infrastructure such as schools, medical facilities,
shops, places of worship, recreational facilities, etc.

What is the plan for the many and different types of houses required.

Where are all the new roads to be for this housing and development plan. What is the plan for the upgrade of existing roads to
facilitate the influx of the extra vehicles which will accompany the vast amount of extra population. Who will pay for these new
and upgraded roads.
If a new major road structure is not planned for then this area will become gridlocked and people will be trapped within
the area of the development.

With the extra traffic due to the rise in population how will this affect the pollution that is now quite high.

How do we plan for open spaces, nature conservation, green areas for people to enjoy the countryside.

How do we plan for the extra local transport required.

Flooding is one great worry with a high percentage of the possible building land on flood plains and also very near to the River Crouch.
What thought has been given to the strengthening of the river bank and drainage of the land on lower levels.

Do you really think that your plan to build this amount of houses within such a small area with no plan or thought of how all
the infrastructure required is to be delivered is at all possible.
