The proposal to build houses of Wellington road in Rayleigh will only add pressure to the water/sewage facilities which has experienced flooding many times in the last few years and we have had overflow running down Bull lane. The infrastructure can not cope already so adding to the load has disaster written all over it.
The large development near the carpenters arms, seems another stress on the roads, that area is often jammed with traffic.
I believe that option 3 is the best option , creating a new small town, will ensure that the proposed area gets all the services and facilities it needs on one swift move whilst not putting pressure on the infrastructure of existing towns and villages in south east Essex area. As a member of the Rayleigh community for nearly 20 years our roads today cannot copy with existing traffic and I often spend time sitting in traffic, which cannot be good for the environment. So added to the load will just bring further problems.
