New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

Representation ID: 38265

Received: 29/08/2021

Respondent: Mr Stephen Oakman

Representation Summary:

There has recently been a large housing estate created in Hullbridge to the north of Lower Road. No additional infrastructure is in place ie school capacity, additional doctor's facilities, allowance for vastly increased road usage. More house building will only increase the population of Hullbridge turning it from a pleasant village to an under serviced small town.
Talking to people in the village it would appear that nobody is interested in further expansion of housing in our village. Nobody except for those land owners looking to make an easy profit and then most likely moving away from the village.
