New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

Representation ID: 37628

Received: 03/08/2021

Respondent: Kevin Kitney

Representation Summary:

Most traffic is passing through Rayleigh. If the A127 is blocked, Rayleigh becomes blocked.
There should be plans for a bypass, through the land South of Battlesbridge, South of Hullbridge and through to Southend Airport and beyond.
This would create a relatively traffic free high street and Rayleigh, improving air quality and making the roads safer for pedestrians and cyclists.
Also, as a byproduct, it will create a corridor for more potential developments in the future.
