New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

We disagree strongly with the potential plans for Rayleigh developments:
CFS 027,029,053,086,098.
We say ‘No More Development’.
Main reason is the impact on road traffic which is already in a dreadful state. Rayleigh is often gridlocked with motorists queuing in traffic jams or increasingly using ‘Rat Runs’ like our road – Victoria Road, to the detriment of residents and their families’ safety.
In your ‘Spatial Options’, on the ‘Site Assessment Proformas’, we'd like to know:
- Why is there no category for the impact on the traffic situation?
- What does Level 2 mean on the ‘Potential Plan Strategy Option’?
We disagree strongly with the potential plans for Rayleigh housing developments:
CFS 027,029,053,086,098.
We say ‘No More Development’.
The main reason is the impact on the road traffic situation which, as you know, is already in a dreadful state. Rayleigh is often in a gridlock situation with motorists either queuing in traffic jams or increasingly finding and using ‘Rat Runs’ like our road – Victoria Road, to the detriment of local residents, not least their families’ safety.
We have looked at your ‘Spatial Options’ and are confused by a couple of things on the ‘Site Assessment Proformas’:
- Why is there no category for the impact on the traffic situation?
- What does Level 2 mean on the ‘Potential Plan Strategy Option’?
