New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

Representation ID: 37629

Received: 03/08/2021

Respondent: Kevin Kitney

Representation Summary:

We seriously need a bypass. More local development will just increase the pollution of road traffic. Creating cycle lanes will not prevent through traffic clogging our streets.
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.
